(Natural News) Could alfalfa concentrate help you meet your recommended daily intake (RDI) of various nutrients? According to a recent study, it most certainly can. A team of Romanian investigators has found this legume to be an exceptional source of minerals, proteins, and much more.
Through laboratory analysis, the researchers were able to assess the nutritional content of alfalfa concentrate flour – which in this case was acquired as a byproduct from making Alfalfa Complex, a dietary supplement by American vitamin company Shaklee. They discovered that it had an impressive concentration of protein and crude fiber, as well as an equally substantial composition of amino acids. In particular, the researchers noted that alfalfa concentrate flour had all of the essential amino acids or those that the human body is unable to produce naturally, in great amounts.
