Herb a Day Campaign: Alfalfa | Medicago sativa

Herb a day Campaign : In the world of herbs, I think Alfalfa is our iceberg. You see a small delicate plant above the soil but what you don’t see underground is the vast network of roots this plant grows. The roots are said to reach up to 40 feet below the surface to procure their nutrients. And gather nutrients it does do! It has one of the highest sources of chlorophyll in the plant kingdom. Alfalfa contains B12, Vitamin C in large amounts and so much Calcium it’s almost off the charts. The fiber in the plant is insoluble so it can help with bowel regularity. Alfalfa seems to neutralize acids in the system, thereby balancing the Ph. Nourishing the endocrine system isn’t hard for this plant because it contains all the known vitamins and minerals we need in our life. I love it with Mint of your choice and green Yerba Mate’. Enjoy yourself some alfalfa and feel amazing! #alfalfa #herbs #herbalhealing #masterherbalist #tea #cupofgoodness #dallasherbalist #herbsman! #herbadaycampaign #chlorophyll #slanginherbs
