VZ Astragalus
Astragalus is a complex combination of polysaccharides, triterpene glycosides, flavonoids, amino acids, and trace minerals. Astragalus appears to restore T-cell (a specific type of white blood cell) counts to relatively normal ranges in some cancer patients. Astragalus polysaccharides have been shown to stimulate pituitary-adrenal cortical activity and restore depleted red blood cell formation in bone marrow. Again, confirming traditional Chinese medicine, Astragalus has been shown to stimulate the body’s natural production of interferon and also useful for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease, chemotherapy support, common cold/sore throat and immune function.
