Astragalus
Thursday, September 25th, 2008An herbaceous perennial plant of the pea family, astragalus is most commonly used for its longevity properties, its immunostimulatory activity and its seemingly remarkable ability of restoring suppressed immune systems activities. The most remarkable property of the Astragaloside IV molecule is its ability to stimulate the production of telemerase, the enzyme that protects and promotes cell telemeres. This is why this rare and expensive compound was selected as the principal ingredient in Bio Quench. These telemeres are thought to be the ultimate limit on cell life span. Used to strengthen the immune system over time, build resistance to illnesses, astragalus may be a useful complementary treatment during chemotherapy, immune deficiency syndromes and radiation therapy. For providing additional short term immunity boost, echinacea may be used with astragalus.
