Fenugreek

   Fenugreek, also known as methi seeds, provides wonderous health benefits and is an amazing addition to any health plan.  The herb is safe to take on a daily basis and has no negative side effects though it may create a maple odor to your sweat!  Through my experince I have brought people onto the idea of fenugreek for sweat odor and one friend actually stopped having to use Degree 24hr for the first time in her life!  Very powerful for digesting carbs and stabalizing blood sugar this seed is very good for diabetics and for preventing type 2 Diabetes.  I personally love my maple sweats and all the benefits of fenugreek which may include:
  •  reverses bronchitis
  • reduce fevers
  • soften sore throats
  • speed healing of wounds
  • soothes swollen glands
  • lessens skin irritations
  •  control blood sugar - diabetes
  • shrink ulcers
  •  aids in the treatment of cancer
  • promotes lactation  
  • aphrodisiac
  • reduces dandruff and encourages hair growth
  • aids digestion
  • reverses reproductive disorders
  • soothes arthritis
Fenugreek has always done me well and I always seem to have a larger cup size when I go bra shopping no lie!  Must be the hormones in the seed that encourage lactation and reproductive organ balance.  I strongly encourage this for nursing mothers to supply an overflow of breast milk.  Fenugreek can be sprouted, found in curry spice, fried, and also steeped as a tea.  The sprout is bitter but try adding sweet and spiciness to the mix to balance the flavor!  Also try fenugreek leaves if you can find them at your local farmer's market.  You could also plant your own; they are delicious!
