I am not knowledgeable about alfalfa either. However, here is something that I found on the can of alfalfa, which may just be advertising hype, or worthy of more in-depth research for factuality.
-----Centuries ago the Arabs used nutrient-rich alfalfa as feed for their horses because they claimed that it made the animals swift and strong. They eventually became so convinced of its benefits to their own health that they named the grass Al-Fal-Fa, which means "father of foods".---- Peter Thanks Duncan and Peter. A teaspoon or so sounds fine to me, but I am not sure I would worry about amounts slightly better than a teaspoon. I've had horses - but still am no expert - and they thrived on quantities of alfalfa hay, as I recall. So I am now curious about this even more. And if in ground and in caps perhaps 2-4. I'll try some in my cereal tomorrow morning.
