Alfalfa Leaf Powder 16 OZ (1 Pound)USA

Also known as

Medicago sativa, lucerne, holy-hay, and trefoil.

Introduction

If you have ever driven across the desert west of the United States and noticed occasional fields of bright green grass, chances are you saw alfalfa. Alfalfa is one of the oldest cultivated plants. It has been used for centuries for hay, but it has also been used for centuries as a human food. Its name comes from the Arabic, al-fac-facah, "father of all foods."

Constituents

As a food, alfalfa provides beta-carotene and vitamins C, E, and K (although it is not, as frequently claimed, a source of vitamin A).

Parts Used

Seeds, sprouts, and the above ground parts of the plant as a bulk herb, for teas, and in capsules.
