I've tried a few other brands and ... - Great product! I've tried a few other brands and they tasted terrible, and/or had an unpleasant stringy texture. I choked them down anyway, but it made me so grateful for this astragalus, as it has a delicious smoky but fresh flavor, and a chewy-crunchy nutty texture. I don't like taking pills, especially when it comes to herbs, so I'm really happy with this one, and will definitely order again. It's great as a tea, mixed into cereals, or to just eat straight out of the bag. Also, I should note, it seems very potent, as when I first started taking it, I noticed a mild herx - sweats, flu-like symptoms of achy muscles and fever and crawly-skin, it definitely felt like something was clearing out of my system for a couple of days. I continued taking it, did not scale back my dosage, and by the third day it was gone and I felt really good. The reason why I started taking Astragalus in first place is as a preventative against contracting Lyme as recommended by Stephen Buhner in his book Healing Lyme and Its Co-infections. I am outdoors a lot in tick-infested areas and my boyfriend has chronic Lyme, so it's definitely a concern for me. Astragalus is a wonderful immune-enhancing herb that can be taken indefinitely, unlike a lot of immune-enhancing herbs, such as Echinacea or Goldenseal that can't be taken every day for long periods of time. This astragalus also has other wonderful and noticeable benefits for hair and skin, and the adrenals - I've noticed an increase in stamina, better mood, healthier hair and skin and more balanced digestion since I've been taking it, so I'd definitely recommend it as a great all-around great adaptogenic herb, and I'm very much hoping it will protect me against Lyme as well. Review: Astragalus root - It's a supplement thought to have a whole host of health benefits. Look it up because desertcart won't let me post it for some reason. I purchased it to include when making elderberry syrup. This was high quality. Arrived on time, as described, good price. Wasn't moldy or dirty, didn't have an "off" taste. 5 stars would recommend. Will buy again. ## Features - PURE ASTRAGALUS ROOT: This bag contains Astragalus membranaceus, the botanical name for astragalus root.

It is generally better to buy buy cut and sifted bulk herbs over powdered as it often retains the volatile oils in herbs. It is like the rough herb they get when they pick it. Also, in storage whole and cut and sifted herbs hold their active constituents better than powdered herbs do. **Q: Is this item easy to use?** A: i make tea. or i may add to other herbs to make tea, such as basil. oregano, green tea, it is very simple yet very beneficial. thank you **Q: Is there allergy/ cross contamination labeling into available?** A: No there isn't! **Q: Why the contents in the package doesn't look as it is in advertisement? Now I am not sure that this is Astragalus...** A: What does yours look like? Mine are always small pieces, like tiny pieces of a dried root. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product!

I've since used it in cereal: (soak overnight with oat groats or steel-cut oats), and as a base for soups. Its chewiness also adds texture. ## Frequently Bought Together - Starwest Botanicals Organic Astragalus Root - Dried Herb for Tea, Natural Immune Support, Cut & Sifted, Promotes Wellness, Certified Kosher, Non-GMO- Bulk 1 lb Bag - Extra Large 2lb Bag - Hawthorn Berry Tea Organic - Dried Hawthorn Berries Whole - Hawthorne Tea - Healthy Blood Pressure, Heart Health, Immune Support - Licorice Root Tea 1LB (16Oz) 100% CERTIFIED Organic Licorice Root Cut and Sifted (Glycyrrhiza glabra), in 1 lbs.
