Fenugreek is an annual herb with light green leaves and small white flowers. It’s of the pea family (Fabaceae) and
also known as Greek hay (Trigonella foenum-graecum). Fenugreek seeds have a somewhat bitter taste, similar to
celery, maple syrup or burnt sugar, and are often used to make medicine. The seeds are the most widely used part
of fenugreek, which are usually dried and ground. The leaves are often used in cooking as well. Fenugreek can be
taken by mouth or used to form a paste that’s applied to the skin to help heal inflammation.
As noted in the book “Essential Oils in Food Preservation, Flavor and Safety,” fenugreek extract and oil are known to
possess antimicrobial, antioxidant, antidiabetic and antitumorigenic activities. Cultivated in North Africa, the Middle East, Egypt and India, it has a long history as an ingredient in traditional medicine.
Fenugreek Is Shown To Help With Numerous Health Issues :
1. Improves Digestive Problems and Cholesterol Levels
Fenugreek may help with numerous digestive problems, such as upset stomach, constipation and inflammation of
the stomach. For instance, the water-soluble fiber in fenugreek, among other foods, helps relieve constipation.
It also works to treat digestion and is often incorporated in an ulcerative colitis diet treatment plan due to its
anti-inflammatory effects.
Fenugreek also seems to benefit those with heart conditions, such as hardening of the arteries and high blood levels
of certain fats, including cholesterol and triglycerides. In fact, a study out of India showed that administering 2.5
grams of fenugreek twice daily for three months to people dealing with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
significantly lowered cholesterol naturally, along with triglycerides, without affecting HDL cholesterol.
2. Reduces Inflammation
3. Increases Libido in Men
Some fenugreek uses for men include treating hernias, erectile dysfunction and other male problems, such as baldness. That’s because fenugreek may increase sexual arousal and testosterone levels.
4. Promotes Milk Flow in Breastfeeding
5. Helps with Eating Disorders
6. Improves Exercise Performance
The use of fenugreek with creatine supplementation may be an effective means for enhancing creatine uptake while eliminating the need for excessive amounts of simple carbohydrates, and thus you should consider adding fenugreek to your list of best foods for athletes.
