Medicago altissima
Medicago altissima, also known as tall medic or big medick, is a perennial legume plant native to Europe, Western Asia, and North Africa.
The plant is rich in medicinal properties, primarily due to its high content of isoflavones and saponins, which have been traditionally used to treat various health issues.
The health benefits of Medicago altissima include its potential to reduce inflammation, improve cardiovascular health, and support bone health, as well as its antioxidant and antimicrobial properties.
Traditionally, the plant has been used in herbal preparations such as teas, infusions, and tinctures to promote overall well-being, although further research is needed to confirm its efficacy and potential interactions with other medications.
