For those suffering from anemia, fenugreek is a terrific natural source of iron. Boosting iron levels has been linked to decreased weakness and improved energy for those suffering from low iron.


Here are 5 ways fenugreek can help your health, according to a review published in the Journal of Evidence-Based Contemporary and Alternative Medicine.
:Prevents Infection and Inflammation
Fenugreek seed extract contains a compound that has been shown to prevent the growth of harmful, illness-causing bacteria and fungi, such as Staphylococcus aureus (the bacteria that causes staph infections) and E. coli. Also, this extract has been shown to reduce signs of inflammation by about 62 percent.
:Lowers Blood Sugar
Human and animal studies show that fenugreek can help people with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes. "Fenugreek has been definitively shown to reduce fasting blood sugar and improve glucose tolerance in people with type 1 diabetes and to enhance lipid profiles, insulin sensitivity, and glucose control in folks with type 2 diabetes," says Gerard Mullin, MD, author of The Gut Balance Revolution.
:Fights Cancer
Preliminary research using extracts of fenugreek showed the herb's ability to inhibit the growth of cancer cells up to 70 percent in the lab. This cancer-fighting ability likely comes from the herb's high levels of flavonoid and carotenoid antioxidants.
:Improves Your Heart
Not only does fenugreek lower bad cholesterol (LDL), but it also raises good cholesterol (HDL). Research suggests that fenugreek may promote the conversion of unhealthy cholesterol into bile salts, a naturally occurring chemical in the body that helps fat digestion and toxin elimination. 
:Treats Anemia
For those suffering from anemia, fenugreek is a terrific natural source of iron. Boosting iron levels has been linked to decreased weakness and improved energy for those suffering from low iron.
