Although some herbalists consider  \u003cb\u003eAlfalfa\u003c\/b\u003e so mild that it is a food rather than a medicine, the herb has  to its credit some wonderful cures. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrank Bower (who is known as the  Father of Alfalfa) discovered that the plant contained important  enzymes, which assist in good digestion. Tests over a period of years  revealed that in addition to enzymes, the plant contains important  chlorophyll, vitamins and minerals, all of which stimulate the appetite.  The enzymes are sufficiently present to help in the digestion of all  four classes of foods--proteins, fats, starches and sugars. One of the  important vitamins present in the food is Vitamin U, which is also  present in raw cabbage and which has been used to treat peptic ulcers.  This discovery of Vitamin U confirms the Chinese herbalists  use of the  herb to cure ulcers. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the Soviet Union, after years of testing Vitamin  U on laboratory animals, scientists began clinical testing of the  substance on human patients with gastric and duodenal ulcers, with an  80% cure rate, the other 20% being noticeably improved. In any  conditions that require cleansing and building of the body--and that  includes most ailments! --Alfalfa is recommended as a basic, and mild,  herbal food. Alfalfa is especially rich in iron, calcium and phosphorus,  all necessary for strong, healthy teeth. The high Vitamin K content of  the herb helps to clot the blood properly and prevent against  hemorrhages. For this reason--among lots of good reasons--it is  recommended that pregnant women take the tea daily. In addition to the  blood doffing properties of Vitamin K, it has been found effective in  preventing and curing high blood pressure in test animals, and may turn  out to be important for the same use in humans. It is important that in  the plant kingdom, only Alfalfa contains a significant amount of Vitamin  K; most plants are quite deficient in the vitamin. The high Vitamin A  content in the plant is excellent to prevent infection. This vitamin  also helps prevent night blindness. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe many constituents of the plant  make it good for toning the system in high pressure situations. Alfalfa  is one of the few vegetable sources of Vitamin D. Alfalfa has been used  in the treatment of jaundice. Alfalfa, along with other foods, is known  to help remove cholesterol from the system. Alfalfa has a significant  amount of protein--18.9%, as compared with 16.5% in beef, 3.3% in milk  and 13.1% in eggs. Eating the sprouts can add a significant amount of  important protein in vegetarians who take no animal proteins at all, and  whose diet may include so many grains and beans that concentrated  proteins are difficult to obtain. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlfalfa\u003c\/b\u003e is used in Europe for many  functional type diseases such as arthritis and rheumatism, colitis,  anemia, etc. It is excellent for children who do not seem to be growing  well enough, providing an abundance of vitamins, minerals, proteins and  enzymes, which might not be assimilated otherwise. The chlorophyll  abundant in the leaves has been found to assist in granulation of tissue  after it has been damaged. The substance also helps in the  strengthening of the connective tissue in the body.
