Red Clover is one of the richest natural sources of isoflavones. These phyto-nutrients are widely consumed by women during later life. Relying on dietary intake of isoflavones alone would mean the ingestion of large amounts of legume plants, such as peas and beans, which can be difficult to achieve in large enough quantities. Red Clover is a naturally rich source and provides the desirable isoflavones we should be trying to consume in our diets; Biochanin-A, Formononetin, and Genistein.
Red clover is a wild plant belonging to the legume family. Cattle and other animals graze on red clover. It has also been used medicinally to treat a number of conditions including cancer, whooping cough, respiratory problems, and skin inflammations, such as psoriasis and eczema. Health care practitioners believe that red clover "purified" the blood by acting as a diuretic (helping the body get rid of excess fluid) and expectorant (helping clear lungs of mucous), improving circulation, and helping cleanse the liver.
