Ultimate Support for Healthy Immune Function

Astragalus Supreme is a unique formula specifically designed to support the health of the immune system and aid the body in developing its inherent ability to adapt to temporary stress. The herbs in this formula work together to encourage overall immune system health and stamina, and improve one's natural ability to endure both physical and emotional stress. Astragalus Supreme also provides antioxidant protection from free radical damage
to cells and tissue. Its component herbs support immunologic balance, optimal liver function and a healthy heart.
Astragalus root has long been valued in China for its role in supporting immune system health, encouraging vital heart function, and enhancing the body's natural resistance and adaptation to stressful influences. As well, this highly regarded root offers antioxidant protection. Fittingly, astragalus root's antioxidant properties may have a beneficial effect on liver and heart function by protecting these vital organs from the damaging effects of free radicals. In traditional Chinese Medicine, astragalus is considered one of the most important tonics in existence, earning the name of "yellow leader," due to the root's characteristic yellow color and superior performance among Chinese tonic herbs.*
