Key Benefits of Astragalus Root
To create a truly unique Astragalus preparation for our customers, Seven Springs Trail Elevated Astragalus begins with a highly concentrated organic Astragalus extract, which has been standardized to contain 70% of the active polysaccharides present within the plant. We then fortify that with an isolated Astragaloside IV 5% Extract.
Astragaloside IV is a highly researched compound present in very small quantities within the un-extracted root and has demonstrated promise for repairing and extending the lengths of chromosomal telomeres.
Here's The Lowdown
The truth is that you're going to find many, many options available to you when you're looking for an Astragalus Extract—whether that be an extract powder like you see here, capsules, tinctures...whatever.
We get it.
But we're clearly not going to offer you just another Astragalus Extract.
No way.
So what sets our Seven Springs Trail Elevated Astragalus ahead of the pack?
Well, for starters, we begin the process of crafting this product using choice, certified organic Astragalus Root. By choosing the best inputs, we can guarantee the best outputs.
But it doesn't stop there.
We take that choice Astragalus Root and form two separate extracts with it.
The first extract comprises the majority of the Astragalus in this product. That's an incredibly potent, yet still broad-spectrum extract powder, one that has been standardized to contain 70% polysaccharides.
Yes. 70%.
Why do you care about all those polysaccharides?
Because those are the active compounds present in Astragalus Root and standardizing the extract to contain 70% of them makes it a very, very strong product.
So for now, we've got the highest quality, organically grown Astragalus Root extracted down to something incredibly potent.
This would be excellent by itself as a longevity tonic, as an immunity tonic, and as an overall, all-round tonic and adaptogenic herb. Astragalus excels in this department. Seven Springs Trail would be good enough just like this.
The problem is that there is this impressive, largely unknown and unrecognized compound present in tiny amounts in Astragalus Root. That compound is Astragaloside IV.
Astragaloside IV has been shown to lengthen telomeres.
Telomeres are the little caps on the ends of your chromosomes. As we age, telomeres become shorter and shorter, and certain lifestyle can even exacerbate how quickly we lose them.
Once the telomeres are gone, the genes enter a stage called senescence, where they stop working altogether and can even start excreting harmful compounds into your tissues and blood.
Enter Astragaloside IV
Astragaloside IV can help lengthen your telomeres by increasing an enzyme called telomerase, a process which doesn't usually occur in humans. Lengthening telomeres is effectively turning back the biological clock.
In Seven Springs Trail, we combine the two: The base standardized extract—which by itself if exceptional—and the isolated Astragaloside IV extract, thus creating two products in one:
- The ideal Astragalus Extract for those seeking the wide range of benefits of Astragalus with the addition of the longevity promoting possibilities of Astragaloside IV.
- And the ideal isolated Astragaloside IV Extract for those targeting the longevity properties of it with the added benefit of the broad spectrum benefits of the entire root.
These are the reasons why people love this product and these are the reasons why Seven Springs Train stands way, way ahead of the pack of other Astragalus Extracts.
But is it for you? We don't know.
You see, not everyone is looking to add Astragalus to their routine, but if you are—and I kind of assume you are since you're reading this right now—then 100% this is the product for you.
Our highly concentrated Astragalus extract, fortified with Astragaloside IV, and made with full spectrum standardized extracts, is one of the most potent extracts on the market.

Astragalus is considered one of the most important tonic and adaptogenic herbs, and has been for over 2000 years.
