Our Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) provides a time-honored green superfood used to support everyday wellness. Alfalfa is naturally rich in phytonutrients and chlorophyll and has been studied for lipid balance and gentle digestive comfort. Produced in FDA-registered, GMP-certified facilities and 3rd-party lab tested for identity, potency & purity.*
Research Promise: At LifeSource Vitamins, our commitment is rooted in research and results. Every benefit below is supported by human clinical studies indexed in the National Institutes of Health (NIH) via PubMed, with full texts available in the National Library of Medicine (NLM) PubMed Central (PMC) when available. In addition, we reference reviews from 39 leading health organizations and insights from 20 top global universities to ensure our guidance aligns with credible science.*
• Lipid balance (preliminary human) — Small human studies of alfalfa seed/leaf preparations reported reductions in total and LDL cholesterol; larger modern trials are needed. (NIH/PubMed — Mølgaard, 1987; NIH/PubMed — Malinow, 1980)
• Mechanism context (saponins & bile acids) — Alfalfa saponins may help reduce intestinal cholesterol absorption and support bile acid balance (mechanistic/animal + in-vitro support). (NIH/PubMed — Malinow, 1977; NIH/PubMed — Malinow, 1979)
• Plant-phytonutrient/antioxidant context — Reviews describe alfalfa polyphenols and saponins relevant to oxidative and lipid balance; human confirmation remains limited. (NIH/PMC — Aloo, 2021; NIH/PMC — Quiñones-Muñoz, 2022)
• Digestive/comfort tradition* — Monograph notes traditional use for gentle digestion and nutrient support (vitamin K content). (MSKCC — About Herbs)
• Antioxidant activity* — Experimental data on alfalfa extracts show antioxidant effects in models of oxidative stress (mechanistic). (NIH/PMC — Raeeszadeh, 2022)
• Vitamin K & meds — Alfalfa contains vitamin K (warfarin interaction; consult your clinician). (MSKCC — Alfalfa)
• Autoimmune caution — L-canavanine in alfalfa has been linked to lupus-like flares; avoid with SLE history unless supervised. (NIH/PubMed — Akaogi, 2006; NIH/PubMed — Alcocer-Varela, 1985)
• Sprout food-safety — Raw sprouts are a known source of foodborne illness; vulnerable groups should avoid raw sprouts. (CDC — 2022 Advisory; CDC — 2016 Advisory)
• Traditional green superfood for everyday wellness*
• May support healthy cholesterol already in the normal range (preliminary human data)*
