mkur Posted May 18, 2011 Report Posted May 18, 2011 Dr Oz did a segment on tonsils Friday 5/13/2011. He mentioned using astragalus to help prevent strep infections. Anybody used this? He said that more adults are getting their tonsils out because they weren't removed as children.
Chemar Posted May 18, 2011 Report Posted May 18, 2011 It's an excellent herb BUT it *stimulates* the immune system which is a bad thing for many people who have auto-immune conditions where the immune system is already hyperactive!

Thanks for the information. I think we will skip this herb for now. My son has high titers.
