Alfalfa Herb Information

Alfalfa can possibly cause a reduction of the activity of Warfarin. Alfalfa is rich in chlorophyll, phosphorus, iron, potassium, chlorine, sodium, silicon, and magnesium. The use of alfalfa meal on the compost pile will insure keeping the pile 'hot' and speeding up decompostion. As a cover crop it fixes nitrogen in the soil. The deep roots help to break up clay and hard pan soils. Makes a good green manure. Alfalfa Herb is used as a bitter digestive remedy; general tonic; antipyretic; alterative; diuretic (weak); for acid conditions in general; and for inflammations; arthritis; rheumatism.
