Astragalus Root Powder (Comext) is a bulk, food-grade botanical powder made from astragalus root (commonly referenced in the ingredient trade as Huang Qi). Supplied as a dry powder for manufacturing use, it is typically selected for traditional botanical positioning and for inclusion in daily wellness and herbal blend formulations.
In formulation, astragalus root ingredients are commonly used in products positioned around immune-seasonal support and adaptogen-style wellness concepts (where permitted), without implying treatment or prevention of disease. This Comext listing is described as particle soluble in water, which can support dispersion in select premix and beverage-style systems (final performance depends on the complete formulation).
Applications
- Dietary supplements (capsules, tablets, powder blends, stick packs)
- Functional foods & beverages (instant drink mixes, nutrition premixes; dispersion/processing dependent)
- Herbal and botanical blend formulations (general wellness positioning; claims must be market-compliant)
- OEM/ODM programs requiring an astragalus root powder input
