Reduce Chemotherapy Side Effects
Chemotherapy is one of the main treatment options for many forms of cancer. However, it would lead to certain side effects. Studies have shown that astragalus can help ease some of these problems. For instance, a clinical research in those who underwent chemotherapy suggested that the plant given intravenously helped alleviate diarrhea, vomiting, and nausea. Similarly, certain other studies have suggested the benefits of this plant for other side effects of chemotherapy. Nevertheless, it is worth noting that this herb seems to be only effective during the first stages of treatment. [4]
