Astragalus
This herb stimulates the body’s immune action against pathogens, has a mild antibiotic action and increases the activity of white blood cells.
Heard lots of great things about Astragalus for chronic fatigue, have been using now semi regularly for a few months and can really tell the difference. Has been great for my friends and family with cold and flus. Makes you feel strong, protects the body and does not disappoint. It's my go to immunity herb.
So good to hear the herbs are helpping. Thanks for the feedback, Laura
