Active Ingredients & Science
The main ingredient in this supplement is astragalus root (Astragalus membranaceus), which provides a range of natural components such as flavonoids, free amino acids, trace minerals, and polyphenols. These substances occur naturally in the plant and are easily absorbed by the body thanks to the capsule's plant-based cellulose. Flavonoids and polyphenols are plant compounds well known for their role in plants' nutritional profile, while free amino acids are important building blocks that the body can use directly without prior breakdown.
