RAJA HERBA : ALFALFA

Alfalfa is a legume which is capable of extending its root system 8 metres, reaching into the sub-soils for minerals. The ash of Alfalfa contains 99% available calcium and has an alkalising effect on the body and the digestive system. Legumes are typically rich in minerals and protein, providing a good range of amino acids. In ages past the Arabians noticed their horses reached peak fitness on this plant, so consumed it themselves hence the name Al-fal-fa "Father of all foods". Alfalfa is high in calcium, protein, carbohydrate and chlorophyll giving bone and muscle integrity and high energy. SERVING SUGGESTIONS: 1-2 teaspoonsful may be sprinkled onto Cereal, Salad or other cold foods, used in cold Sauces or Salad Dressings or may be blended with Honey or shaken in chilled liquid. CONTENTS: 100% Powdered Alfalfa Plant using natural farming methods. Don't underestimate the power of Alfalfa!. What is the most universal food fed to horses, which are required to work hard all day? No - it is not a big thick cheese sandwich! Of course, it is Alfalfa ( better known as lucerne ) that we generally choose to feed them for sheer power, energy and muscle integrity. What contributes to muscle integrity? We know the answer to this is calcium! Calcium is integral in strengthening muscles. Alfalfa contains calcium in copious quantities due to its deep root characteristics, which seek out minerals from the sub-soils. Calcium combines with other minerals in the Alfalfa and, also, helps build a strong skeletal system. What makes the energy? The complex carbohydrate from the young fibre in the leaves, and also the high levels of iron in Alfalfa which carry oxygen efficiently to the muscle via the haemoglobin, both contributing to sustainable energy levels. Also, the unusually high level of potassium makes this wonderful green powderdeal for sports people and those who live life in the fast lane. What about protein? Dead protein formulas are pushed at us for miscle building and energy. Instead take a look at Alfalfa with its living protein levels of 660mg per teaspoonful; combine that with High Protein Formula and you have the best energy and protein cocktail that money can buy without compromising your wallet or your enzyme production calabilities! With all this potential activity taking place, ones mind may stray to thoughts of sore muscles and joints. Don,t worry - Alfalfa contains excellent levels of chlorophyll, which is a known anti-flammatory agent
