History

    Used by the early Arabs as feed for their horses to make the animal swift and strong, Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is one of natures oldest legumes. Because the roots of the plant burrow deep into the earth, Alfalfa naturally contains a variety of vitamins, minerals and enzymes known to promote good health.

Peppermint (Mentha piperita) is a widely-used flavoring found in a variety of consumer products. Peppermint's aromatic and health-giving qualities come from the mint;s volatie oil, which contains menthol. Both herbs have a long and varied history and together make a refreshing tea. It may be served either hot or cold, and lemon may be added, along with sweetners , to taste.
