The
first documented use by the Chinese dates
back to the 6th century. Chinese healers
use alfalfa for kidney
stones and normal water retention.
First
discovered by the Arabs, who dubbed this
valuable plant the "father of all
foods", the leaves of the alfalfa
plant are rich in minerals including calcium,
magnesium, potassium, and carotene to
support the heart and normal cellular
division. English herbalist John
Gerard recommended alfalfa for upset stomachs.
Noted biologist and author Frank Bouer
discovered that the leaves of this remarkable
legume contain eight essential amino acids.
Alfalfa is suggested to be a good cleanser
and a natural diuretic. This versatile
herb is also a folk remedy for joint stress,
and is reputed to be an excellent appetite
stimulant and overall tonic. Unfortunately,
most westerners regard alfalfa as cattle
fodder and therefore rarely take advantage
of the beneficial properties of this common
plant.
