Red Clover - The Traditional Herb For Better Health
 
RED CLOVER

Red Clover is traditionally used as a Spring tonic to promote better health. Supplements that diet with Silica, Choline, Calcium and Lecithin in minute quantities. Red Clover's exclusive System inhibits normal plant oxidation, maintaining product potency and extending freshness. Red Clover includes all-natural antioxidants.



Red Clover is classified as an isoflavone & is one of the richest sources of isoflavones. In modern research, there is evidence to suggest an anti-neoplastic action in humans. The importance of isoflavones is widely appreciated and is currently the subject of intense research and discussions. Isoflavones appear to protect against hormone-related disorders such as breast cancer and prostate cancers.



Red Clover is considered by herbalists to be a phytoestrogenic herb which is useful in restoring estrogen balance in women. The chemical formononetin, found in Red Clover, acts on the body in a similar way as estrogen. Primary chemical constituents of Red Clover include phenolic glycosides (salicylic acid), essential oil (methyl salicylate), sitosterol, genistiene, flavonoids, salicylates, coumarins, cyanogenic glycosides, silica, choline, and lecithin. Red Clover also contains vitamin A, vitamin C, B-complex, calcium, chromium, iron, and magnesium.Red Clover is a perennial which belongs to the family of Leguminosae. Red Clover is thought to "purify" the blood by promoting urine and mucous production, improving circulation, and stimulating the secretion of bile. Recently, specific chemicals in Red Clover -- known as isoflavones -- have been isolated and tested for their effectiveness in treating a variety of conditions.



The expectorant and anti-spasmodic properties of Red Clover justify its use for repiratory conditions like asthma and bronchitis. It has also been used externally for skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. The concentrated isoflavones within red clover have been the subject of many studies, and research suggests benefits for menopausal symptoms as well as cancer and cardiovascular disorders.



USES OF RED CLOVER



Red Clover contains isoflavone that theoretically could help prevent specific types of cancer, including breast and prostate cancer.

Red Clover's isoflavones have been used to treat the symptoms of menopause.

Red Clover can be used for therapeutic purposes for coughs, bronchitis, eczema, sores, scrofula and can be gargled for mouth ulcers and sore throats.

Red Clover increases the production of mucus and urine flow helping relieve irritation and inflammation of the urinary tract.

Red Clover uses for arthritis, tumors, skin eruptions, infections, and toxicity.

Red Clover is a natural anti-spasmodic since it prevents and relaxes muscle spasms.

Red Clover is one of the most useful remedies for children with skin problems.

Red Clover is valued for its ability to loosen phlegm and calm bronchial spasms.

EFFECTS OF RED CLOVER

No adverse effects have been reported in humans when taking therapeutic doses of the Red Clover. Although allergic reactions to Red Clover are rare but possible.

Red Clover is a safe medicine, although it does thin the blood. This is good news for anyone who has problems with blood clots, but be careful about taking it with blood-thinning medications because Red Clover can increase the drug's action.

For women with normal estrogen levels, Red Clover isoflavones may displace some natural estrogens, possibly preventing or relieving estrogen-related symptoms, such as breast pain, that are associated with PMS. This effect of Red Clover may also reduce the possibility of developing estrogen-dependent cancer of the endometrium.

Red Clover may interfere with an enzyme which is known to promote the progression of endometrial cancer.
