History and Usage:
Long cultivated as a valuable food source for animals, Alfalfa is now becoming a popular nutritional supplement for humans. Alfalfa roots can grow as deep as 20 feet or more in the ground meaning they have access to nutrients most plants cannot tap into. Because of this, Alfalfa is one of the richest sources of vital nutrients we have. This super food is high in chlorophyll, vitamins A, D, B6, E, K, calcium and phosphorus. Vitamin K is critical to blood clotting. Alfalfa is also rich in phytoestrogens and contains the eight essential amino acids. It is one of the most mineral-rich plants known. Because the minerals are in a balanced natural form the body easily absorbs them. If you are looking for an alternative to a mineral supplement, alfalfa is a great choice.
Preliminary research is still being conducted, but one suggested use of alfalfa includes the reduction of total cholesterol and LDL (“bad”) cholesterol in blood levels. Alfalfa contains high amounts of calcium and magnesium, which studies have shown, may reduce or prevent migraines when the minerals are combined in this way. Historically, alfalfa has been used for a number of other treatments including anemia, gout, arthritis, fatigue, insomnia, kidneys, peptic ulcers, pituitary problems, appetite stimulation, diabetes regulation, and for building general health. The Chinese have used alfalfa to treat kidney stones for centuries. Detailed human studies are still needed to confirm many of these uses.
