When you suffer a bruise, it means that the blood vessels in that area have burst. The first step that the body needs to take is to stop that blood flow, which happens through clotting. Blood clotting requires a unique combination of nutrients to occur, but one of the most important elements in vitamin K. Fortunately, this important vitamin is found in high concentrations within alfalfa. You can apply alfalfa directly to the bruised area, or just grab a handful of alfalfa and make yourself a salad after your bruise your shin or take a tumble.
