Alfalfa Nutrients and Health Benefits

Vladimir Yasmenko — Fri, 10 Sep 2010 08:00:38 +0000

In this Article I would like to introduce you to a flowering plant, that somewhat resembles a clover, called Alfalfa. Alfalfa is also called lucerne, lucerne grass, chara, gadab, rajka, or Binomially called Medicago Sativa. Alfalfa doesn’t like to be planted on existing Alfalfa fields, so it is very recommended to rotate your fields with other species or plants like wheat or corn before planting Alfalfa on the same field again. Alfalfa is mainly grown and used for feeding different kinds of animals. Alfalfa Sprouts are very edible for humans and they taste good in sandwiches and salads.

Alfalfa is also considered as an insectary plant because of so many insects that it attracts to itself. To prevent the alfalfa being destroyed by many kinds of insects, some farmers use Chemicals or Genetically Engineered Alfalfa Seeds which are very dangerous for human’s health, but as long as it’s cheaper… you know what I mean :) So, watch out when you shop for Alfalfa sprouts and try to get the Organic ones.
