Fenugreek Seeds

Fenugreek's seed or pulse is used as a spice and its leaves used as a herb, and also as an admixture in condiments and to flavour food. Its pods and leaves are used as vegetables, as the leaves are rich in protein, minerals and Vitamin C. In North India and Punjab, fresh fenugreek leaf is used in culinary dishes.

Fenugreek seeds are often consumed in teas or supplements and are thought to help promote healthy blood sugar levels and lower blood cholesterol levels. Fenugreek seeds can also help reduce inflammation, improve digestion, and provide antioxidant benefits.

Fenugreek is native to the Mediterranean, Europe, and Asia. Fenugreek seems to slow sugar absorption in the stomach and stimulate insulin. Both of these effects lower blood sugar in people with diabetes. Fenugreek might also improve levels of testosterone and estrogen, helping to improve interest in sex.
