Bila bercakap tentang alfalfa....pasti ada yg tertanya-tanya apa yang BEST sgt ALFALFA SHAKLEE nie??
INI LAH DIA 11 ALASAN ANDA PERLU JATUH CINTA DENGAN ALFALFA
1. It lowers cholesterol- In several studies,
alfalfa supplementation reduced blood cholesterol levels, particularly for
individuals with a specific kind of high cholesterol known as type II
hyperlipoproteinemia. It appears that the fibers and chemicals in alfalfa stick
to cholesterol, so that it doesn't stay in the blood so it can't be deposited
on blood vessel walls. Even more exciting is that it seems to lower bad
cholesterol (LDL) while leaving good cholesterol (HDL) alone.
2. Contains essential enzymes needed to efficiently digest
food-(Lipase – fat splitting,Amylase – acts on starches,Coagulase – coagulates
or clots blood,Emulsin – acts upon sugar,Invertase - converts cane sugar to
dextrose,Peroxidate – oxidizing effect of the blood,Pectinase – forms vegetable
jelly,Protase – digests proteins)
3. Alfalfa is a great digestive aid- The
chlorophyll, enzymes, minerals, vitamins all aid digestion and help stimulate
lagging appetites.The 8 essential enzymes assist in digesting all 4 classes of
food: proteins, fats, starches and sugars.
4. Aids in healing peptic ulcers- Contains Vitamin
U, a vitamin found in green vegetables. It is used in the treatment of peptic
ulcers, colitis, and gastritis and has an effect on secretory, acid-forming,
and enzymatic functions of the intestinal tract*. Vitamin U effectively cured
80% of peptic ulcers of those tested at Stanford
University, (as stated in “Nature’s Healing Grasses”).

5. Aids the kidneys in ridding the body of excess fluid
and regulates the bowels- Chemicals in alfalfa have mild diuretic
properties, which may promote the loss of water from the body. Therefore,
alfalfa may relieve swelling caused by excess water accumulation.
6. Helps the body fight off infection- The
chlorophyll in alfalfa develops an effective barrier against bacterial invasion
by its stimulation effect on the growth of connective tissue and granulation
tissue.

tone in the body; helps bring nutrients to cells and helps strengthen blood
vessel walls, including capillary walls; helps proper focusing of the eyes.Vitamin
U - promotes health of body to help overcome peptic ulcers.Vitamin B6-helps
food assimilation and protein and fat metabolism; promotes nerve and skin
health; helps battle nausea symptoms.Vitamin K- essential for blood clotting;
important in liver functions; may possibly contribute to vitality and
longevity.Vitamin D - regulates the use of calcium and phosphorus in the
body and is therefore necessary for the proper formation of strong and healthy
teeth and bones.
9. Alfalfa is rich in minerals-Calcium- builds and
maintains bones and teeth; helps clot blood, aids in vitality and endurance;
regulates heart rhythm, soothes nerves.Iron - required in manufacturing
hemoglobin; helps carry oxygen in the blood.Manganese is a trace element
that is thought to be involved with the body's use of carbohydrates from food.
This helps alfalfa lower blood sugar levels. Because alfalfa may have a
lowering effect on blood sugar, alfalfa may increase the effectiveness of
medications used for the treatment of diabetes. Potassium - necessary
for normal muscle tone, nerves, heart action and enzyme reactions; digests
fats.Phosphorus - needed for normal bone and tooth structure. Interrelated
with action of calcium and Vitamin D. Improves nourishment of nerve tissue.Chlorine (chloride) -
an essential electrolyte which cleans and purifies the body; regulates fat,
sugar and starch metabolism.Sodium- regulates fluid balance throughout body;
neutralizes acids, prevents clotting of blood; activates spleen, bowels and
stomach functions.Silicon Magnesium - helps body to deal with
constipation; steadies the nerves; has protective effect on skin and body;
stimulates brain function.
10. Alfalfa is high in protein- Alfalfa has 18.9%
