Also known as "the king of bitters," it is an herb with a long history of use in Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine. The main benefit for which Andrographis supplements are used is to boost immune system health, and promising clinical trials have been conducted demonstrating its effectiveness in achieving this.
It is usually taken in cycles or only when one is sick to improve the immune system's ability to fight infection.
As a supplement for immune system health, we recommend a dose of 500 to 1000 mg per day (1-2 capsules) taken with food. If necessary, doses of up to 2000 mg can be taken, but we do not recommend exceeding 2000 mg per day, as side effects are more likely with high doses.
