10 Benefits of Astragalus
Benefit #9: Helps with Asthma
Astragalus has been used to treat chronic asthma. It cannot cure asthma, a respiratory disease that affects millions of people, but it can be used for supplemental therapy against asthma.
In many people who use the plant with asthma, they noticed hypersensitivity in their airways decrease substantially and mucus production and inflammation were reduced in studies. By preventing or reducing asthma attacks, individuals could be relived of chronic asthma issues in the future. There are also studies that suggest the plant can help with hepatitis, bronchitis, and help heal lung tissue affected by bronchopulmonary dysplasia in newborns.
