Herb of the Month - Meet Astragalus! #VERVAINHOTM
Astragalus (A. Membranaceus)
What is Astragalus?
Astragalus is a polysaccharide-rich root. Some studies have shown that it supports the immune system because your body perceives it as a threat and mounts an immune system response - but it is not actually a threat!
Parts used: root
Benefits:
Strengthening the immune system. Astragalus is an immune modulator. This means these herbs tend to balance and strengthen your immune system. A fun bit to add. Astragalus can also be used as an adaptogen, helping your body in how it responds (adapts) to stress!
