Review: Hight recommended - Good supplement
Review: Wrong way of handling supplements - The product is very good which deserve 4 stars. However, I put only 2 stars because supplements should be handled same way as medicines. I have received the item extremely warm from the heat. It is desertcart responsibility to insure that the product will be shipped with a proper mean during the summer especially.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the extract version more potent than the regular Astragulus?**
A: Yes, it is more potent, but more importantly it is standardized. That is, you know exactly what is contained within the capsule, 70%Polysaccharides. In the plain version you really don't know what you are getting. This herb was recommended by Dr. Weil.

**Q: Where is the astragalus harvested?**
A: It is harvested and bottled in the US.

**Q: How do you rate the efficacy of this product?**
A: the product appears to be ok. It's easy to swallow. I haven't been taking it long enough to confirm any positive effect.

**Q: Is the other 30% of the extract the saponins? If not what is it?**
A: This is a water and ethanol extract of astragalus root that is dried into a powder without adding a carrier. The soluble constituents of the plant are extracted. At least 70% of these are polysaccharides. The rest is expected to be the full range of other soluble compounds found in astragalus root, which we do not separately identify or quantify, though to meet label claims we do I.D. the material to assure that it is astragalus and also assay it for polysaccharide content. According to one study (PMID 26916911) “The major components of Astragalus membranaceus are polysaccharides, flavonoids, and saponins.” That would be a logical basis for considering what the non-polysaccharide fractions in the extract likely would be.

*by A***N on 27 June 2026*

Good supplement

### ⭐⭐ Wrong way of handling supplements
*by W***Y on 3 June 2022*

The product is very good which deserve 4 stars. However, I put only 2 stars because supplements should be handled same way as medicines. I have received the item extremely warm from the heat. It is Amazon responsibility to insure that the product will be shipped with a proper mean during the summer especially.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ High Polysaccharide Content Makes a Real Difference
*by A***S on 14 April 2026*

I chose this astragalus extract mainly because it’s standardized to 70% polysaccharides, which are the key active components I was looking for. That level of standardization really sets it apart from many other products. I actually bought this once back in 2017, but at the time I didn’t fully understand its benefits. I started using it again in 2023, and the difference has been noticeable. Throughout the winter, my overall resistance felt much stronger, and even within my family, we had far fewer issues with seasonal illnesses. One important note from my experience: I prefer not to take it once I’m already sick. It seems more suitable as a preventive supplement rather than something to use during active illness.This is a high-quality product with a well-defined active component, and it has earned a place in my long-term routine.
