For some reason I thought that fenugreek was good for O nonnies so I bought some capsules. Now I can't even find it listed anywhere. Have I lost my mind? What is it for? |

If memory serves, it is listed in one of the protocols in the Cardiovascular Health Series book. |

Oh, thank you! So I did not buy the real herb, I bought a capsule. Will that work? |

open it up and sprinkle on salads.... fenugreek is a part of all curry mixes.... a little goes a long way, in terms of taste |

I did look it up and I did not see it. I found it on a list that it is beneficial for O nonnies, but some post earlier said it made the person have an odor. I don't want that!!! |

Everybody is different, just because somebody had an odor it doesn't mean you will or have it as strong. Though i wouldn't mind smelling like maple!.  |

How interesting. That must be why it's in a sausage spice mixture I just put together yesterday. I thought it was a strange spice to include..... sure smell's nice. Haven't used it yet but am lookiing forward to making turkey sausage with it. |

Fenugreek is good to thin mucus secretions. I like to drink Fenugreek seed tea when I have allergies or a cold. It's like chicken soup and Guaifenesin.
And as Lola says, it's a part of curry. |
| My SWAMI diet is a blend of BTD and GTD Explorer, but I'm not totally compliant. Also I try to choose foods that have a Low Glycemic index. DW and DD are A+, probably also Explorer. |
