Fenugreek water speeds up weight loss.
In Indian households especially, we have been always told about the different benefits that Fenugreek offers & how it is beneficial for our bodies in various ways. Fenugreek can be consumed in multiple ways as a vegetable & also as a spice as it is essentially a herb at the end of the day.
This potent herb has a list of benefits for keeping the body healthier. Only working out regularly or trying every diet possible is sometimes not enough in making us lose weight. Trying certain useful herbs also can help us achieve the goal we desire to accomplish for our bodies. We tend to find solutions outside our home for getting fitter but, much of the solutions are often found in our kitchen itself. Fenugreek is one such magical herb found in our kitchen that improves metabolism, accelerates weight loss & boosts digestion when taken incorrect amounts.
Fenugreek helps in burning fat & other adipose tissues. Consumption of fenugreek powder or seeds with warm water is an exceptional recipe for burning that extra kilo.
Having 10 grams of fenugreek seeds steeped in hot water shuns Type 2 Diabetes; this fenugreek water will help reducing blood sugar levels for people who have diabetes, according to a study published in 2015, in the International Journal For Vitamin and Nutrition Research.
You can take advantage of this beneficial water by soaking fenugreek seeds in hot water for 10 minutes. Lemon & honey can also be added for some extra flavour. And, there your magic fenugreek drink is ready!
A few benefits that fenugreek water offers:
- Galactomannan a water-soluble fibre contained in fenugreek seeds restrains appetite & doesn’t make a person feel hungry. It improves metabolism & also burns fat.
- Insulin secretion & insulin sensitivity both are improved as it consists of an amino acid called 4-hydroxyisleucine that helps diabetic patients as it has anti-diabetic properties.
- Sugar absorption in the body also gets lowered; it slows down the process of digestion & promotes the growth of insulin that the body releases.
