Active constituents and phytochemicals of Red clover.
Red clover is considered to be one of the richest sources of isoflavones (water-soluble chemicals that act like estrogens and are found in many plants). It is used for hot flashes/flushes, PMS, lowering cholesterol, breast enhancement and breast health, improving urine production and improving circulation of the blood. It is also used to help prevent osteoporosis, reduce the possibility of blood clots and arterial plaques and limiting the development of benign prostate hyperplasia.
Red clover is a source of many valuable nutrients including calcium, chromium, magnesium, niacin, phosphorus, potassium, thiamine, and vitamin C. Red clover is also considered to be one of the richest sources of isoflavones (water-soluble chemicals that act like estrogens and are found in many plants).
Red clover contains approximately 0.17 percent phytoestrogens. These include formononetin, genistein ,daidzein, and biochanin A. A volatile oil in the blossoms contains methyl salicylate, among other constituents. Some coumarin derivatives and cyanogenic glycosides have also been isolated.
Primary chemical constituents of Red Clover include phenolic glycosides (salicylic acid), essential oil (methyl salicylate), sitosterol,genistein,flavonoids, salicylates, coumarins, cyanogenic glycosides, silica, choline, and lecithin. Red Clover also contains vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin B-complex, calcium, chromium, iron, and magnesium.

Red Colver Isoflavones:
Four isoflavones found in red clover blossoms, formononetin, biochanin A, daidzein and genistein, do have mild estrogenic activity. This perceived effect has resulted in the introduction of a widely advertised red clover blossom dietary supplement product from Australia as a "natural choice for maintaining estrogen." Clinical studies to support these claims are apparently under way. The isoflavones found in red clover, and more common food sources such as soy beans, may alter hormone production or metabolism, intracellular enzymes, cell differentiation and production, and growth factors. Epidemiological studies suggest potential value of isoflavones in chemoprevention (cancer prevention), in Asian countries where soy products, rich in isoflavones, are widely consumed. A recent in vitro study found that biochanin A from red clover inhibited carcinogen activation in cell cultures, suggesting the need for further studies.
