What is Organic alfalfa grass powder?
Organic Alfalfa Grass Powder is meticulously crafted from 100% pure, young organic alfalfa grass leaves, harvested at their nutritional peak. The leaves are gently dried and finely milled to preserve their vibrant green color, mild earthy flavor, and comprehensive nutritional profile. This ensures a versatile ingredient that contains both beneficial dietary fiber and concentrated nutrients of the whole grass.
We also offer Organic Alfalfa Grass Juice Powder, which is produced by pressing fresh alfalfa grass, then carefully drying the pure juice. This process removes much of the insoluble fiber, concentrating the vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and chlorophyll into a highly soluble and potent form. Both forms of our organic alfalfa provide an excellent way to incorporate the benefits of this “king of all foods” into your product lines, appealing to consumers seeking foundational green nutrition.
