Alfalfa – “The King of all Foods”

Don’t ask me why, but even though I knew how phenomenal Alfalfa is for our well being, we’ve been out of it and I didn’t put it back on our monthly order until this past month. What was I thinking? We all noticed a dramatic difference in how we felt by adding it back into our daily regime. This fact made me go back to my research and to the roots of why we ate it in the first place. I heard that when Dr. Shaklee was asked the question, “If you could only take one Shaklee product, what would it be?” His answer was Alfalfa! Shaklee Alfalfa is a storehouse of nutrients. It’s roots go down as deep as 20 feet picking up trace minerals and nutrients. Alfalfa is also a great source of chlorophyll.

Alfalfa is one of the most nutritious foods. Shaklee alfalfa is organically grown and only the leaves of the plant are used. Special harvesting equipment insures the greatest concentration of nutrients. Shaklee Alfalfa contains a wide range of vitamins and minerals. It is an excellent source of trace minerals and vitamins A, C, E and K. Also vitamin U. What’s vitamin U? read this: http://www.wisegeek.org/what-is-vitamin-u.htm
