R95.00
Pharma Germania Natural Products Astragalus Root Cut is a dried, cut preparation of Astragalus membranaceus root, a botanical with a long history of use in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Astragalus is traditionally regarded as a tonic and adaptogenic herb, particularly for supporting vitality and resilience during periods of fatigue, prolonged stress or increased physical demands. It is also widely used in traditional herbal practice for immune and general wellness support.
The root naturally contains a variety of biologically active plant constituents, including astragalosides, polysaccharides, flavonoids and saponins. These compounds have generated considerable scientific interest, particularly in relation to immune signalling, antioxidant activity and cellular health.
While Astragalus is often described as an “immune booster” or immunomodulator, it is more appropriate to describe it as supporting normal immune function. Traditional or preliminary research should not be interpreted as evidence that Astragalus can treat cancer, diabetes, anaemia, heart disease or other medical conditions.

Why Choose Pharma Germania Astragalus Root Cut?
Astragalus is one of the best-known tonic roots in traditional Chinese herbal practice and has historically been used to support vitality, resilience and general wellbeing.
Modern research has investigated several of its naturally occurring constituents, particularly astragalosides and polysaccharides, for their potential influence on immune signalling and antioxidant pathways.
The cut-root format is particularly suited to a traditional decoction, where the harder root material is simmered in water to extract its soluble botanical constituents.
