Description
Astragalus Root Extract is derived from the dried roots of Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch.) Bunge, a perennial herb native to China and Mongolia. This tan-to-light-yellow powder undergoes standardized extraction to concentrate its key bioactive components: astragalosides (e.g., astragaloside IV), polysaccharides (APS), and flavonoids. It features a slightly sweet and earthy taste with a faint herbal aroma. The product typically offers ≥0.5% astragaloside IV (customizable to higher concentrations) and ≥40% polysaccharides content, produced via ethanol or water-based extraction methods.
