The latest news: the European Union added Astragalus and Notoginseng compound raw materials to the new resource food list
Astragalus extract has the functions of strengthening immunity, enhancing energy, resisting fatigue, resisting mutation, protecting liver and inhibiting osteoclasts. Panax notoginseng extractcan be used for various internal and external hemorrhage, chest and abdomen tingling, and falling and swelling.
The latest news, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) research and evaluation team issued opinions on the safety of AstraGin, a plant raw material compounded with Astragalus and Panax notoginseng extract, as a new resource food (Novel Food). Researchers of the EFSA New Resources Food and Food Allergen Group believe that it is safe to consume 0.5 milligrams (mg / kg bw) of AstraGin plant material per kilogram of body weight per day.
This value is equivalent to the maximum daily intake of 35 mg for adults (excluding pregnant women). AstraGin is a standardized plant extract extracted from the roots of Panax notoginseng and Astragalus. Its total saponin content is at least 1.5%. The minimum content of astragaloside IV is 0.01%, and the minimum content of ginsenoside Rb1 is 0.1%.
AstraGin is a patented 100% natural compound and has multiple patents in the United States, mainland China, and Taiwan. At the same time, the raw material can increase the absorption of many important nutrients in the intestine, including amino acids, Omega-3s, creatine and CBD, etc., to promote a healthy intestinal environment and reduce inflammation.
American NuLiv Sciences is a manufacturer of this raw material. It promotes this product to the market as a patented food and dietary ingredient, which can enhance the absorption of nutrients such as amino acids and folic acid in the intestine. It is reported that in 2012, this product has already obtained the US GRAS certification, and Health Canada also approved the natural product number (NPN) of astragalus in 2017, with the purpose of expanding the astragalus to the Canadian market.
