Fenugreek seed

Fenugreek seed (In Tamil-vendhayam):

 It’s a kind of herbal seeds which adds more value to lead a hygienic life. Even though we use as an ingredient in our daily life, we aren’t aware about the  benefits of it ,what it does  to keep us healthy. Let’s know about it and start to use and encourage cultivation of herbals like this. According to Dr. Richard  Palmquist, chief of intergrative health services at Centinela Animal Hospital in Inglewood, Fenugreek was discovered to have medicinal qualities thousands of year ago by Ayurvedic medicine practictioners .

I have mentioned some of the BENEFITS of fenugreek below:

v Reduces inflammation within the body, such as mouth ulcers, cancer, boils, bronchitis, infection of the tissue beneath the skin, tuberculosis, chronic coughs, kidney ailments.

v Increases Libido in men

v Promotes milk flow in breastfeeding because it acts as a galactagogue, which increases the milk supply.

v Lowers inflammations from outside the body, like pain and swelling in the muscles and lymph nodes, gout, wound, leg ulcers, dandruff etc.

v Helps with eating disorders, it’s flavour does a motivation to eat.

v Improves exercise performance

v Added to this we have another point , it adds flavour and spice to food, which also forms a fame to Indian food.

Let’s modify a slogan into “ A handoff  Fenugreek a day keeps the doctor away”. It is said to be grown extensively in the gardens of  chalemagne. Thus even it gets added little to our food, it plays a major  role to lead a healthy life without  any hectic. It makes me to remember a sentence, ” even it is small, it does great things”.
