Astragalus root, botanical name Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch.) Bunge, is the dried root harvested from mature astragalus plants, widely traded botanical raw material in global food and ingredient markets.

Our dried astragalus root comes from cultivated planting areas in China. Fresh roots go through cleaning, trimming, sorting and controlled natural drying. No solvent extraction, artificial colourants, flavour enhancers or preservatives are added during processing. The finished root shows yellowish-white to light yellowish-brown colour, long cylindrical shape, firm texture, with a subtle mild bean-like earthy aroma. Astragalosides, polysaccharides and flavonoids naturally present inside the root tissue.

We offer multiple forms for bulk buyers: whole root, root slices, cut segments and milled powder. Several commercial grades are available to suit different formulation needs. Each batch is sampled and tested by independent third-party laboratories. Test items cover moisture, foreign matter, heavy metals and microbial limits. Documents such as COA and MSDS can be provided upon request.
