Uses And Benefits of Fenugreek Seeds

Fenugreek seeds can help lower blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity in people with diabetes. They contain fiber and compounds that may stimulate insulin production and reduce glucose absorption in the intestines. To use fenugreek seeds for diabetes, you can soak them overnight in water and drink the water or chew the seeds on an empty stomach in the morning.

Fenugreek seeds can also enhance breast milk production and infant weight gain in lactating mothers. They may act as galactagogues, substances that increase milk supply by stimulating the mammary glands. To use fenugreek seeds for lactation, you can brew them as a tea or take them as capsules or powder.

Fenugreek seeds can also help with menstrual cramps, dysmenorrhea, and premenstrual syndrome (PMS). They may have anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic effects that can ease uterine contractions and pain. To use fenugreek seeds for menstrual problems, you can drink fenugreek tea or take supplements before or during your period.

Fenugreek seeds can also improve digestion and prevent constipation. They are rich in soluble fiber that can bulk up the stool and promote bowel movements. They may also prevent ulcers and gastritis by protecting the stomach lining from damage. To use fenugreek seeds for digestion, you can add them to your dishes or drink fenugreek water before meals.

Fenugreek seeds can also boost hair growth and prevent hair loss. They contain proteins, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that can nourish the hair follicles and prevent damage from free radicals. They may also stimulate blood circulation to the scalp and reduce dandruff and inflammation. To use fenugreek seeds for hair, you can make a paste of soaked seeds and apply it to your scalp and hair. Leave it for 30 minutes and then wash it off with a mild shampoo
