If you’ve ever gone hunting for four-leaf clovers, then you’re already familiar with the clover plant, which grows in abundance all over the world. What you might not know about this so-called “lucky plant,” though, is that in addition to being a common ground covering, clover is commonly used as a medicinal herb.
While wild clover is considered poisonous to humans in large quantities, in small quantities, clover is both edible and potentially beneficial to your health.
Nutrition Information
The Food and Drug Administration currently classifies clover along with animal feeds and medicines. The department doesn’t provide standardized information on red clover past that.
