Red clover is high in vitamins, calcium, iron and other minerals. It is often used to suppress appetite, purify the blood and detoxify. Red clover is also helpful in treating skin infections, whooping cough, indigestion, high cholesterol and menopausal symptoms.
Red clover blossoms are fed to grazing animals in the pasture. The most common form for human consumption is red clover tea or tincture. Infusions and extracts are often used externally.
Although there are no known side effects or warnings, individual allergies are possible. If you experience an allergic reaction or adverse affects when using red clover, discontinue use and seek advice from a qualified medical professional.
