One particular astragaloside found naturally in astragalus is known as Astragaloside IV. This saponin has been determined to be the most active health-positive constituent in astragalus. It is believed that Astragaloside IV may be able to help protect telomeres and to prevent their deterioration over time due to stress and toxicity. Telomeres are chemical bindings at the end of our chromosomes that hold our DNA in place. Aging has been associated with the degeneration and loss of telomeres. Astragaloside IV has also been found to be neuroprotective to brain cells. Astragalus has long been considered a major tonic for athletes and those who work hard physically.
