Andrographis Extract 400mg 90c by Now Foods – Seasonal Wellness and Immune Support Capsules
Andrographis Extract 400 mg capsules by Now Foods provide a single-herb botanical supplement in vegetarian capsules for adults seeking immune support. Each capsule contains an aerial-parts extract standardized to a minimum of 10% andrographolides, distinguishing this formula from an unstandardized herb powder.
This 90-capsule bottle offers a focused approach to seasonal wellness without combining several immune-support herbs in one formula. Andrographis has a history of traditional use in China, India and Southeast Asia. The capsule format lets you take the extract without preparing a tea from this bitter-tasting plant. It is a botanical option rather than a source of essential vitamins or minerals.
Key Andrographis Extract 400mg 90c Benefits
- Supports the goal of a healthy immune response with a focused andrographis formula, rather than a combination of several different botanicals.
- Offers an herbal approach to seasonal wellness for adults who want to complement their existing nutrition and self-care routine.
- Provides andrographolide-containing aerial-parts extract for immune-response support, with a defined botanical identity that makes ingredient comparisons more straightforward.
How Andrographis Extract 400mg 90c Works
The functional ingredient is a standardized extract of Andrographis paniculata. Its naturally occurring constituents include andrographolides, the compounds used to define the extract's minimum concentration. Standardization describes the composition of the ingredient; it does not mean that all andrographis products are interchangeable or that a stronger extract is automatically a better choice.
Immune function depends on coordinated communication between cells, not simply on making every response stronger. This formula is intended to support a healthy, balanced response. The 400 mg amount refers to the complete extract, not to 400 mg of isolated andrographolides. Compare both the extract amount and its standardization when reviewing another andrographis label, and keep the manufacturer's directions separate from the amount in one serving.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Andrographis Extract: May help support a healthy, balanced immune response through its active plant constituents. Immune cells use chemical messages to coordinate their responses; andrographis is used for support of that communication rather than indiscriminate immune stimulation. Its role here is focused botanical immune support, not replacement of essential nutrients.
Andrographis Extract 400mg 90c Is Formulated For
- Adults considering a single-herb formula for seasonal immune-response support.
- People who prefer vegetarian capsules to liquid herbal preparations.
- Adults comparing clearly identified aerial-parts extracts with a stated andrographolide standardization.

Frequently Asked Questions About Andrographis Extract 400mg 90c
What are the benefits of Andrographis Extract 400mg 90c?
Now Foods Andrographis Extract is intended for seasonal wellness and support of a healthy immune response. It supplies 400 mg of aerial-parts extract per vegetarian capsule, standardized to a minimum of 10% andrographolides. The single-herb format is useful when you want to evaluate andrographis separately rather than choose a multi-herb blend. Standardization identifies the extract's composition; it is not a guarantee of a particular response or a reason to exceed the label directions.
Who should take Andrographis Extract 400mg 90c?
This formula is for adults considering a vegetarian botanical supplement for seasonal immune support. It is not a children's product. The label instructs you to consult a physician if pregnant or nursing, taking medication, or living with a medical condition. That review matters with andrographis because of its potential medication interactions. If you already use another andrographis supplement or an herbal immune blend, compare the ingredient lists before combining products so you do not unintentionally duplicate the herb.
Are there any side effects of taking Andrographis Extract 400mg 90c?
Andrographis can cause nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, fatigue, altered taste, rash or allergic reactions. Seek urgent care for breathing difficulty or facial swelling. The label states: For adults only. Consult physician if pregnant/nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition. Keep out of reach of children. Potential interactions include blood pressure medicines, blood thinners, aminophylline, chemotherapy and other medicines affected by drug-metabolizing enzymes. Review the full precautions above with your physician or pharmacist, including possible liver-test changes and painful or swollen lymph nodes.
How does Andrographis Extract 400mg 90c support overall health?
Its role is focused botanical support for a healthy, balanced immune response rather than comprehensive nutrition. Andrographis contains andrographolides, the active plant constituents used to standardize this extract. It does not replace the vitamins, minerals and other nutrients supplied by food. The label recommends taking 1 capsule 2 to 3 times daily as needed. Because one capsule is one serving, the 90-capsule bottle contains 90 servings, not necessarily 90 days of use at the recommended frequency.
