★★★★★— NatI have taken NOW Foods Dong Quai for two months, primarily to help with hormonal balance and menstrual discomfort, and I am really pleased with the results.

Description
Product Overview
NOW Foods Dong Quai is a plant-based supplement containing 520 mg of organic Dong Quai root per capsule, packaged in a jar with 100 vegetarian capsules. Dong Quai, also known as Angelica sinensis, has a long history in traditional Chinese medicine where it has been used for thousands of years. NOW Foods, founded in 1968 as a family-owned company, is well known for its focus on high quality and natural ingredients. With its Non-GMO Project Verified certification and vegan and vegetarian capsules, the product suits many different diets and lifestyles. This product is a fine example of how ancient tradition can meet modern manufacturing to offer a pure and concentrated plant-based supplement.
Active Ingredients & Science
The sole active ingredient in this product is root from Dong Quai (Angelica sinensis), which is well known in traditional Asian herbalism. Each capsule contains 520 mg of this whole root, meaning all naturally occurring compounds from the plant are included. The capsules are made from hypromellose, a plant-based cellulose that facilitates swallowing and contributes to good bioavailability. This whole-plant approach differs from supplements that use only selected extracts, providing a broader composition of the plant's natural components.
Benefits & Uses
- Natural plant-based supplement for those wishing to complement their diet with traditional herbs.
- Suitable for women interested in a natural option within their health routine focusing on wellbeing.
- Appropriate for vegetarians and vegans thanks to vegetable capsules and carefully selected ingredients.
- Convenient capsule form makes it easy to dose and incorporate into the daily routine.
- Can be combined with other supplements for a customised health strategy, such as vitamins or minerals.
This supplement is particularly useful for individuals wanting to explore traditional herbalism and integrate plant-based products into their daily life, whether for routine health care or specific life stages where natural support is sought.
Usage & Dosage
The recommended dosage is one to two capsules daily, corresponding to 520–1040 mg of Dong Quai root. Capsules can be taken with a glass of water, preferably with a meal to aid absorption and reduce any stomach sensitivity. For best effect, it is advisable to use the product regularly over a longer period. Products containing B vitamins or other herbs can be complemented, but it is always good to consult a health expert if uncertain about combinations.

NOW Foods is a family-owned company with over 50 years of experience in the supplement industry.
