About
Astragalus Root Organic is the whole, dried root of Astragalus membranaceus, also known by common names including milkvetch, locoweed, and goat's-thorn. Certified Organic and sourced from China, this root has a long history of traditional use in Chinese herbal practice, most commonly prepared as a decoction on its own or alongside other herbs. Its firm, woody texture makes it well suited to slow simmering in teas, soups, and broths.
As always, it's advisable to consult with healthcare professionals for personalised guidance on health concerns.
Directions of Use
Whole Astragalus root is best prepared as a decoction — a longer, gentle simmer rather than a quick steep — due to its firm, woody texture.
1. Decoction: Simmer several slices gently in water for 20–30 minutes, either alone or combined with other herbs.
2. Soups & Broths: Add whole root to soups or broths during cooking, and remove before serving.
3. Bulk / Manufacturing: Suitable for herbal formulation and manufacturing — contact us for technical specifications and bulk carton options.
