NFH Andrographis SAP, 90 Capsules
Description
Andrographis paniculata is a bitter herb — genuinely bitter, which is why one of its traditional names translates as "king of bitters." It has a long record in Ayurvedic and traditional Asian herbal practice, and it's become one of the more commonly stocked botanicals in Canadian pharmacies through the winter months.
Standardized to andrographolides
The compounds that define andrographis are the andrographolides, and this extract is standardized to contain a set level of them. That matters more here than with many herbs: raw andrographis powder varies substantially in andrographolide content depending on growing conditions and which part of the plant is harvested, so an unstandardized product tells you very little about what you're actually taking.
How it's usually used
Andrographis is typically taken as a short course during the colder months rather than continuously year-round. Follow the dosage and duration on the label, or your practitioner's direction — this isn't a herb most protocols call for indefinitely.
Format
90 capsules. Made in Canada to NFH's practitioner-grade standards, clean-label and free from unnecessary artificial additives.
Important before you start
This is a supplement, not a treatment for infection. If you have symptoms that are severe, worsening, or lasting more than a few days — particularly fever, breathing difficulty or chest pain — see a doctor or pharmacist rather than self-treating.
Andrographis specifically warrants professional advice before use if you:
- Are pregnant, breastfeeding, or trying to conceive — it isn't recommended in pregnancy
- Have an autoimmune condition or take immunosuppressant medication
- Take blood thinners or blood pressure medication
- Have gallbladder or liver conditions
Discontinue and seek advice if you experience any allergic reaction. Store cool and dry, out of direct sunlight, and out of reach of children.
