Asparagus racemosus has been successfully used by some medical practitioners as an anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and immunomodulator for many infectious diseases. Asparagus racemosus can also improve the milk production and reproduction capacity of dairy animals. The use of Asparagus racemosus can also boost the immune system and consequently prevent the infection of the udder and reproductive organs of cows. It can also be effectively used to reduce the stress of dairy animals and improve their productivity thus producing clean and healthy milk from them.
