Leaf of Medicago sativa Certified Organic; grain alcohol 60%, distilled spring water. Strength 1:5.
Traditionally, alfalfa was widely used in the treatment of respiratory conditions, such as bronchitis, the flu, and the common cold, as well as other viral and bacterial infections. Alfalfa has inflammation-reducing properties, which made it useful in treating various breathing conditions, such as asthma, while also strengthening the immune system to neutralize the underlying infections attacking the respiratory tracts.*
Potassium and iron are both found in significant supply within alfalfa, and these benefit the heart in different ways. Potassium is a vasodilator, which helps to lower blood pressure by releasing the tension on blood vessels and arteries. Furthermore, the iron content of these sprouts boosts red blood cell production, thus improving circulation and ensuring that the body’s organ systems are properly oxygenated. This puts less strain on the heart because the extremities will be demanding less blood and oxygen from an already overworked heart.*
