Guest guest Posted June 10, 1999 Report Share Posted June 10, 1999 <<<There is also oral chelation therapy explained in the book " Prescription for Nutritional Healing " . Alfalfa is one of the herbs used, and I was wondering if that would help with the toxins of lyme? Maybe someone with a knowledgable doctor could get some opinions on this. >>> Hi ! I used to get morning sickness no matter what I ate in the morning, until I started with this shake I have with greens stuff. If I don't have it for one day, I get the morning sickness again. One of the ingredients is alfalfa grass. The mix is very good for cleanse, amongst other things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 31, 2001 Report Share Posted March 31, 2001 Reading this from the book Prescription for Nutritional Healing (by Balch and Balch)...Alfalfa "is good to use while fasting because of its chlorophyll and nutrient content. It contains calcuim, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, plus virtually all known vitamins. The minerals are in a balanced form, which promotes absorption. These minerals are alkaline, but have a neutralizing effect on the intestinal tract. ....it has helped many arthritis sufferes.... and has been found to aid in the healing of intestinal ulcers, gastritis, liver disorders, eczema, hemorrhoids, asthma, high blood pressure, anemia, constipation, body and breath odor, bleeding gums, infections, burns, athlete's foot and cancer."

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2001 Report Share Posted March 31, 2001 It is wonderful for folks with metals or other toxicity since it is a natural blood cleanser among other things. My son does much better when taking it regularly. Gaylen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2002 Report Share Posted December 12, 2002 Alfalfa is a sprout and sprouts have mildew and mold in them because of the way they are grown. Hope this helps.

Guest guest Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 That is SO KOOL !!! I didn`t know all that. All I knew is it worked !!! That is amazing to me. Thanks ! in WV rasheedaas <rasheedaas@...> wrote: -, you mention Alfalfa-- I have a little book I got in a used book store called, Healing Power of Herbs by Heinerman. Here is what he says about alfalfa, which he calls, " The King of Herbs " : 2 tablespoons or 10 capsules contain- twice as much calcium as a glass of milk almost as much protein as one hamburger nearly as much iron as 2 oz liver lots of vit B complex, enzymes, and fiber. And we feed it to cows! ellen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 Has anyone taken alfalfa tablets for arthritis or heel spurs? Years ago, early 1970s, my mother's feet hurt so much that she could barely walk. Her allopathic doctor (AD?) told her that she had spurs on her heels and she would just have to live with it. That was way back when Prevention was still a real magazine, and before they sold out to the AMA. Some of you probably remember the excellent " Mailbag " section. Someone there said that alfalfa was good for the feet, so I bought her a bottle. She took them as directed on the bottle and within 24 hours the pain was gone and never returned. She too up that bottle, and, I think, bought one more and took those. As far as I can remember she never took any more. Mother was a teacher, and her principal had the same problem. She told him about the alfalfa, he took it and his foot pain was also gone by the next day. I don't have problems with my feet but my hands do get stiff now and then. When they do I take alfalfa and the stiffness and discomfort is gone within a day. I take it for three or four days and then quit until my hands ask for it again. My husband's niece had a different problem. When she took it it was more painful for her to walk because it took the swelling down. " But, " she told me, " it did something! " Our daughter-in-law (otherwise known as Daughter) can't take it because it makes her asthma worse. Not surprising when one thinks of " hay feven. " So it's not for everyone, but it sure helps me. Enjoy! ;-) Judith Alta and Oski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 It probably depends on what really is the cause of the pain. Alfalfa is loaded with vitamins and minerals though, so I am not surprised it helped. Plus, just believing something is going to work will give it the power to do so. Definitely not for those allergic to it though. Good tip Judith! Janet Alfalfa Has anyone taken alfalfa tablets for arthritis or heel spurs?

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 Janet, and all who have sent greetings. Thank you. Ahhhh! The " placebo effect. " And they tell people that there is no way that the body can heal itself! Had a doctor once who told me she wished they could develop a drug that was as effective as a placebo. (Just goes to show the medical mentality.) Pardon my typing if I've misspelled anything. My overhead light died yesterday and I'm truly a touch typist until the sun comes up.

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 So many different belief systems have that worked into it. " Speak to the mountain " , " the power of positive thinking " , " just visualize your cancer being attacked by an army " . That sort of thing. We are indeed fearfully and wonderfully made.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 It's much cheaper here, and so is royal jelly. I've bought both by the kilo. I suppose it's good, but can't provide any accounts of miracles. Haven't bought any for a year or so.
