    Aliya's comments:

    It always amazes me at how often nature is providing the items that we need to live a healthier life. Astragalus is one of those amazing plants that makes every day better. Think of this plant as one that opens and supports the rivers (fluids) of the body to function better, removes items that do not belong, and gives you a shield that protects from invaders (even on the cellular level). These properties remind me so much of the benefits of our Warrior products and I highly recommend bringing astragalus as a daily option to help you feel better and keep you well.

    Native American traditions:

    Astragalus is commonly used in teas, poultices, or creams to apply to injuries but also for pulling out poisons, toxins, and fever from the body. It is gentle enough to be made into an eye wash and it’s valued for ceremonial use. The sweet roots are often eaten raw or boiled, fruits are eaten as food, and the leaves are used as a mat to line areas used for butchering. Stalks with pods are used as rattles and astragalus is widely known as good horse medicine.

Anyone who has had transplant surgery or is taking medications that suppress the immune system or medication that thins the blood. Children and pregnant or nursing women. It has anticoagulant activity and may increase the risk of bleeding.
