Here are the top conditions that Alfalfa can be used to treat. There is documentation that Alfalfa as a herb can help you with the following conditions:
Alfalfa has been a valued crop for 1000's of years. It is rich in vitamin K which helps keep our bones strong, and the blood in our viens flowing without blockage. (Vitamin K can help prevent hardening of the arteries). Alfalfa is known as a "hay crop" for animals, but it is also valued for human consumption. The common ways to get alfalfa into your system is fresh sprouts, alfalfa capsules, or alfalfa tea. Alfalfa sprouts are a favorite of mine. But as with any sprout, you must be careful with contamination. There have been several reported cases of e-coli in sprouts that are commercially grown.
If you want to have a fresh source, that you are able to monitor and regulate for contamination, why not grow your own. A few minutes a day of maintenance is all your sprouts will need. Ebay is one of my favorite sources for getting a sprout kit or seeds. Here are a few of the current auctions. |
