Nutrition- Nutritive Herbs


Nutritive herbs are a class of plants that can be considered to be herbs but have a positive effect for anyone. They are high in minerals and vitamins, are alkalinizing foods, and have a preventive effect on health as well as healing properties.  Alfalfa, which we have written about in the past, is an example. It comes from an Arabic word meaning "mother of all foods."  Some other examples are dandelion leaf, nettles, rose hips, banana, barley leaf, apple, asparagus, banana, barley grass, bee pollen, bilberry, broccoli, cabbage, carrot, cauliflower, grapefruit, hibiscus, lemon, oatstraw, onion, orange, papaya, pineapple, red clover, spirulina, stevia, kelp, and wheat grass.
