Description
Alfalfa is a leguminous, perennial plant, grown commonly as a ground cover crop
in arid regions of Africa. In Britain, we generally only consume the sprouts, to
make use of the concentrated nutrients contained within the seeds.
The main attribute of the alfalfa leaf is the vitamin K content. However, its
nutritional benefits do not stop there. Also contained in the foliage are
vitamins B6, D, E and U, along with beta carotene and several essential enzymes.
The primary function of vitamin K is its role in the blood clotting
mechanism, and it is therefore valuable for protecting against haemorrhage in
some individuals. Alfalfa is also valuable for relieving digestive upsets such
as indigestion and over-acidity. It also helps to maintain a healthy gut wall
and acts as an appetite stimulant.
