According to nutritiondata, an online service provided by "self" magazine, sprouted alfalfa seeds are an excellent source of vitamin k, which is essential for normal platelet function.

Alfalfa Extract-1

Alfalfa Extract Benefits:

1.High Cholesterol

Alfalfa extract contains saponins, a substance thought to bind cholesterol to bile salts and reduce serum cholesterol levels. Animal studies have shown a direct association between increasing doses of alfalfa saponin extract and decreasing blood cholesterol levels in rats.

Whether the same effect can be achieved in humans is uncertain. Alfalfa has been understudied as a potential treatment of hypercholesterolemia (high cholesterol), and it is unclear if the same relative dose in rats can be used safely in humans. Further research is needed.

2.Diabetes

Fiber-rich foods like alfalfa extract may help control blood sugar by slowing the absorption of glucose in the intestines. As such, alfalfa may aid in the treatment of diabetes or prediabetes. There has been some evidence of this, albeit scant, in animal studies.

A 2015 study published in Interventional Medicine and Applied Science reported that rats with chemically-induced diabetes experienced a reduction in blood glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, and "bad" low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol after receiving an alfalfa extract for 21 days. There was also a significant increase in the level of "good" high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.

At present, there is little evidence the same benefits can be achieved in humans. Further research is again needed.

3.Urinary Tract Disorders

Alternative practitioners believe alfalfa acts as a natural diuretic ("water pill") and can be used to treat urinary tract disorders, including renal calculi (kidney stones) and urinary tract infections (UTIs).

Despite claims to the contrary, there is little evidence that alfalfa can help prevent or clear kidney stones, much less treat an acute urinary tract infection.

4.Premenstrual Syndrome

Alfalfa extract contains phytoestrogens, plant-based hormones that mimic the action of the female hormone estrogen. Herbalists contend alfalfa can be an effective remedy for menstrual disorders such as premenstrual syndrome (PMS).

5.Arthritis

A number of test-tube studies have reported that alfalfa exerts potent effects by suppressing the production of inflammatory compounds known as cytokines.9

Some alternative practitioners believe this effect can reduce pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. Alfalfa is, in fact, one of the more popular ingredients used in herbal arthritis remedies.
