Lupus patients need not worry about Ionic Alfalfa.

Ionic Alfalfa is a proprietary blend of alfalfa juice concentrate  and plant-based minerals sourced from a deposit deep underneath the Earth. The product is designed by Isagenix Founder John Anderson to restore food with the natural content of trace minerals that food once had thousands of years before the advent of industrialized agriculture.

People with systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus) – a chronic autoimmune disorder — should avoid alfalfa sprouts and seeds because of their high concentration of the non-protein amino acid called canavanine. Canavanine has been shown to potentially induce or aggravate lupus symptoms.

The alfalfa juice in Ionic Alfalfa is extracted from mature plants at mid-growth stage (not the sprouts or seeds). As a further safety precaution, the ingredient is third-party tested to be ensure no presence of canavanine.

So, yes, Ionic Alfalfa is absolutely safe for lupus patients.
