I first heard of telomerase in connection with the mice that were genetically altered to exclude telomerase...and when they were infused with same, it reset their bio clocks. I researched ta65 and astragalus, and not being able to afford ta65, I began taking 4000 mg astragalus extract, five months ago. General well being, no illness, despite exposure to several rhinoviruses at work, increase...

I work with small children and am constantly exposed to viruses so I took it to strenghthen my immune system. I haven't gotten a cold but sadly don't think I'll be able to continue using it because of side effects of anxiety, some nausea and weakness since using it. Plus a ringing in my ears and hearing my heart beat in my ears. Can't say for sure it's related to astragalus use but that's when I get it, after I take it.

i had the flu and i used astragalus with reishi mushroom, these two boost the immune syste, elderflower, which is good for the cold and flu and poke root which only about a teaspoon should be used for any type of muscle aches and it was gone in about 3 days without any OTC medication.

I am a R.N, which requires exposure to all community acquired diseases. This herb has been a God sent to me. I have been well for two years with no sign or symptom of any cold, flu, etc. This herb is amazing. I cannot say enough good things about this herb.

I normally buy the raw herb and take it with eluethero root as traditionally used for immune boosting. I do 3/4 teaspoon twice a day (morning and noon b/c it will wake you up a bit) in hot tea.

I suffered all my life from Hay fever. I took anti hystamines for decades.I have now found Astragalus, echinacia and "Host Defense's Mycommunity" very effective. I was taking Host Defense as hope it was a cancer preventer when I discovered I did not get hay fever any more. I later tried Astragalus and echinacia.

I was going through treatment for ovairian cancer and found that astragalus combo helped with my energy levels. I also feel that it helped strengthen my immune system. I highly recommend this product to anyone that is under going chemo treatment!!!!! It was thanks to my sister-in-law, she is a herbalist and sent this product to me.
