Astragalus powder (Astragalus membranaceus) is a certified organic root powder traditionally used to support immune function and overall vitality. Known as huang qi in traditional herbalism, astragalus has been used for thousands of years as a deep immune tonic, valued for its ability to support the body's natural defences over the long term. This fine powder format makes it easy to add to daily drinks and food.

Astragalus is one of the most widely used herbs in traditional East Asian medicine, where it is classified as a superior (top-grade) herb. It is typically used as a long-term tonic rather than a short-term remedy.
The astragalus plant is a member of the legume (pea) family. The root is harvested after 4 to 7 years of growth, when the concentration of active compounds is highest.
