Alfalfa is root that can grow over 100 feet into the earth. Its deep roots allow it to concentrate many different types of vitamins and minerals from the soil. It is used medicinally as general tonic or, supporter of the body, due to its reputation as a good balanced source of vitamins and minerals. It has been shown to be of help for arthritis sufferers. Ground alfalfa has been studied for its effect on cholesterol.
It has been shown to decrease cholesterol by inhibiting intestinal resorption and to reduce atherosclerotic build-up in arteries. Alfalfa contains a significant amount of vitamin K and other chemicals that thin the blood. The isoflavones in alfalfa are similar to those that are found in soy and red clover. These substances have proven useful in the treatment of menopause and menstrual discomforts. The chlorophyll, green pigment, in alfalfa aids the healing of intestinal ulcers, hemorrhoids, bleeding gums, burns and infections. Chlorophyll induces detoxification of the body and decreases halitosis and body odour.
Rich in Vitamin K...
Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that can be made by the gut bacteria. It has two main functions in the body. The first is blood clotting. Vitamin K is needed for the production of the blood clotting factor prothrombin. Prothrombin regulates the cascade of reactions that is needed to form a fibrin coating over a break in a blood vessel. Secondly, vitamin K plays an important role in bone formation and repair by synthesizing osteocalcin. Osteocalcin causes calcium to deposit in the bone, thus enabling proper bone growth and preventing osteoporosis. Vitamin K may also boost the immune system and support healthy cell growth.
A good source of Chlorophyll
Chlorophyll is a group of green pigments that allow plants to capture energy from the sun. It is most well known as a deodorizing and breath freshening agent by speeding the release of toxins from the bloodstream. Commercial chewing gums, toothpastes, mouthwashes and deodorants often have chlorophyll added to it for this reason. Chlorophyll is a very nutritious substance because it contains large amounts of magnesium. It is used for blood disorders, like anemia, because a molecule of chlorophyll resembles the human hemoglobin (oxygen-carrying) molecule. Chlorophyll also has antioxidant properties and therefore, protects our cells from damage due to free radicals. Natural health practitioners for a variety of conditions including body odour, bad breath, detoxification, anemia, inflammation and wound healing recommend chlorophyll.
