Alfalfa is an Arabic word which means Mother of all Foods. The reason for this is because alfalfa plants are known to have roots over 30 feet long. Alfalfa plants need such long roots in the desert in order to get enough water to survive.

The result of such long root systems is a plant that is very effective at gathering nutrients for its own survival.

One of the benefits of sprouts is that you can grow them yourself. Not only does this save you money, but when sprouts are grown in your home you also get really fresh juice that contains no pesticides.

You can obtain organic seeds from your local health food store.

You may find it beneficial to wrap your sprouts in a lettuce leaf before juicing to help maximize the juice obtained from the sprouts.
