FENUGREEK ( METHI SEEDS)

Never heard of fenugreek ? Don’t worry — you’re
not alone — but that doesn’t mean you should
continue to be in the dark on this medicinal herb.
In fact, I recommend utilizing fenugreek on a
regular basis.
Why? Because fenugreek has some amazing health
benefits that could transform your health and
change your life for the better. How? It all starts
with inflammation. As recent research shows,
fenugreek helps reduce both internal and external
inflammation … in addition to improving your sex
life and reproductive function, as well as enhance
nutrition for babies !
And that’s just the tip of the iceberg when it
comes to this important herb.


FENUGREEK SEEDS have a somewhat bitter taste,
similar to celery, maple syrup or burnt sugar, and
are often used to make medicine. However,
fenugreek has a far more pleasant taste when
cooked. 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. In manufacturing, fenugreek
extracts are can be found in soaps and cosmetics.

Fenugreek can be used to cure:
1..... ARTHRITIS
Fenugreek seeds which are high in fiber and protein have various other beneficial components including iron, vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin C, phosphates, flavonoids, saponins and other alkaloids. Because of their anti inflammatory properties, these seeds have been traditionally used to get relief from pain due to arthritis.
There are more than one way to use fenugreek seeds for arthritis.
* soak a teaspoon of fenugreek seeds in water over night. in the morning, drink the water and chew the seeds. you willlfeel the bitterness at first but gradually you will adapt to its taste
* if you cannot stand the bitter taste, of fenugreek seeds while chewing, swallow the seeds with water
*you can also use fenugreek seeds powder. mix one teaspoon of this powder to a cup of lukewarm water and drink in the morning on an empty stomach everyday.
this solution should be used for 2 to 3 months

2..... DIABETES

Fenugreek seeds are a rich source of minerals,
vitamins, fiber and important compounds with great
health benefits such as saponins, hemicellulose,
mucilage, tannins and pectin. Fenugreek seeds are 65%
fiber and thus help reduce the glucose absorption rate
at the intestinal level. This stabilizes sugar levels in
the blood and contributes to a better management of
type 2 diabetes.

The saponins in fenugreek, alongside fiber and 4-
Hydroxyisoleucine (an amino acid) are responsible for
lowering both blood glucose and cholesterol levels. For
this reason, fenugreek seeds are recommended for
consumption because they help keep blood sugar and
cholesterol levels low, being an ideal food for anyone
suffering from diabetes or cardiovascular disease,
especially atherosclerosis.

HOW TO USE:
* Steep 2 tablespoons of dried fenugreek seeds in 1
cup of boiling water for 10 minutes. Strain the liquid and
drink the resulting tea twice per day to help lower blood
glucose levels

* Pour 1 cup of boiling water over 4 tablespoons of dried
fenugreek seeds and leaves and steep for 30 minutes to
produce a tincture. Take half tablespoon of the tincture three
times per day.

3.... LOWERING CHOLESTEROL LEVELS

Dry roast a tablespoon of methi seeds until they turn
brown. Allow it to cool and then powder it. Now add one
teaspoon of this powder to a glass of hot water and have
this mixture once a day. Alternatively you could also
sprinkle a little of this powder as you cook your meals.

TO CURE SKIN PROBLEMS


Fenugreek is an effective topical
treatment for skin problems such as abscesses, boils, burns,
eczema, and gout. Therefore, a simple skin inflammation
remedy is the following:
Take a spoonful of fenugreek seeds and grind them into
a powder.
Mix the ground powder with warm water.
Take a simple piece of clean cloth and soak it into the
mixture.
Apply the soaked cloth directly onto the affected skin as
a poultice.


TO CURE HEARTBURN AND ACID REFLUX

Fenugreek seeds contain a lot of mucilage, which helps sooth
gastrointestinal inflammation by coating the lining of the
stomach and intestine. Therefore, for an effective remedy
against heartburn or Acid Reflux, simply sprinkle 1 teaspoon
of fenugreek seeds onto your food. Another option is to take
one teaspoon of seeds and swallow them with water or juice
before any meal.
Alternatively, you can soak one tablespoon of fenugreek seeds in hot water, let it steep for a while and drink then water alongside with the seeds


FOR INDUCING LABOUR
Fenugreek stimulates uterine contractions and can be
helpful to induce childbirth. However, pregnant women
should only use this remedy for inducing labor after
consulting with their doctor.


TO PROMOTE BREAST MILK/ TO AID LACTATION

Fenugreek has been known to increase milk production in
lactating women. Research has even shown that milk
production can increase by over 500 percent within 24 to 72
hours after consuming this herb. Although it is not known
why this happens, researchers speculate that the oil
contained in fenugreek seeds plays a role. Therefore, a
recommended remedy to increase milk flow is to consume one
teaspoon of fenugreek seed/oil three times a
day.

FENUGREEK FOR BREAST ENLARGEMENT

You can use fenugreek to make your breast
bigger by using its oil.apply the fenugreek oil on your breasts and massage it in. Apply the fenugreek oil by doing a circular
motion with your hands around your nipples.
The oil will get absorbed by your body, while the
circular motion of the massage will help to increase
the amount of blood circulation in the breasts. Getting
more blood flow is also a very important factor when
it comes to breast enlargement. Keep in mind you’ll
need to perform this massage technique a few times
daily for about 4 months to experience 1 to 2 cup
increase.
