Heal Yourself With Red Clover

What is red clover and how is it used?

Red clover is known by many names – beebread, clovone, cow clover, isoflavone, Meadow Clover, and may others. The flower tops are usually purple and only sometimes red in color. Red clover is used to make various medicines.

Where can I find red clover plants?

Red clover is grown all over the country, primarily as a forage grass. It is most prevalent in the grasslands and meadows of USDA zones 3-8, which includes most of the continental United States. It is also easy to grow red clover in your own garden since it can be grown in nearly all kinds of soil.

How do you consume red clover?

The brightly colored flowers of red clover are used in liquid extract form as a food flavoring. It can be turned into tinctures for oral consumption and ointments for topical application. It can also be made into tea. See recipe below.

What are the medicinal uses for red clover?

Although most medical research on red clover is inconclusive, there is enough positive evidence that red clover is often used to treat a myriad of conditions including cancer, indigestion, blood clots, skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, high cholesterol, cough, asthma, menopausal symptoms, bronchitis, and STDs.

    Red clover is such a pretty flower but I never thought of this plant as something you could actually use to make tea. What a neat idea – something that makes me wonder what it tastes like and something I wouldn’t mind trying someday.

    My grandmother told me once about it. Red clover is used for cancer prevention, indigestion, high cholesterol, whooping cough, cough, asthma, bronchitis, and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Some women use red clover for symptoms of menopause such as hot flashes; for breast pain or tenderness (mastalgia); and for premenstrual syndrome (PMS).
