Astragalus Root Extract Polysaccharide Powder 50%-70% Polysaccharides Immunomodulating Herbal Extract for Functional Foods & Supplements
Product Overview
Astragalus Root Extract Polysaccharide Powder is a concentrated herbal extract derived from the roots of Astragalus membranaceus (Huang Qi), a traditional adaptogenic herb. Rich in water-soluble heteropolysaccharides (50%-70% purity), this light brown to off-white powder is valued for its immunomodulating properties and versatility in functional foods, supplements, and pharmaceutical applications. Unlike small-molecule compounds (e.g., flavonoids), its macromolecular structure ensures targeted biological activity.

Core Advantages
- Immunomodulatory Support: Polysaccharides act as prebiotics for immune cells (e.g., macrophages, T-cells), enhancing innate defense mechanisms.
- Adaptogenic Properties: Helps the body manage physical stress by supporting adrenal function and energy metabolism.
- Antioxidant Activity: Scavenges free radicals to protect cells from oxidative damage.
- Cardiovascular Health Support: May aid in maintaining healthy blood viscosity and vascular function (via anti-inflammatory pathways).
- Gut-Brain Axis Synergy: Promotes a balanced gut microbiome, indirectly supporting mood and cognitive resilience.
Applications
- Functional Foods: Added to teas, soups, or fortified snacks for immune-boosting benefits.
- Health Supplements: Encapsulated/tableted for daily wellness routines (capsules, powders).
- Pharmaceuticals: Investigated for adjunctive use in immune-compromised conditions (pending regulatory review).
Quality Assurance
Sourced from sustainably cultivated Astragalus membranaceus farms, our extract uses gentle water-based purification (no harsh solvents) to retain polysaccharide integrity. Each batch undergoes third-party testing for purity, heavy metals, and microbial limits, with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) provided.
