I tried fennugreek water for the first time this morning& made a pitcher of the water with about 80ml of seeds to 16 cups of water. I have already soaked 400grams of seeds so far. I am going to strain the 80ml seeds from the water later today. My Question is if I grind any or all the soaked seeds I have &add them to 16 cups of water would it be safe enough concentration to drink it at least twice a day?

Thank you for your input

Hi ! In my opinion, it won’t be good choice to take fenugreek seeds in excess amount. Any herb can be beneficial only if taken in certain specific quantity. Also for which purpose you are using this herb should be considered for the right consumption. Some benefits of fenugreek are ----- ✅Vatahara – useful in treating disorders of Vata Dosha imbalance such as neuralgia, paralysis, constipation, bloating, etc ✅Kaphahara – balances Kapha, useful in productive cough, asthma, bronchitis, chest congestion ✅May worsen Raktapitta –Bleeding disorders such as nasal bleeding, heavy periods, etc ✅Deepani – improves digestion strength.


As you just started taking fenugreek water then start with lower quantity. you can soak a small tsp of seed in a glass of water then next morning consume it directly or chew the seeds as well. OR you can just boil slight reduce it to half and then consume the water. USE IT ONLY ONCE A DAY. 👉Other method of consuming fenugreek is as follows---- 3-5 gram fine powder of fenugreek is administered along with normal / luke warm water daily. ( ONCE A DAY ) This reduces cholesterol significantly as well as you can take the powder empty stomach to Detox your body by removing excessive vat dosha. 👉Fenugreek fine paste in hyperacidity, gastritis: 3-5 grams of seeds are soaked in water overnight. Next day morning this is macerated well and fine paste is made. As it contains mucilage, it helps in soothing the gastrointestinal inflammation by coating the lining of the stomach and intestine; After maceration it is consumed as it is. Or, half a cup of water can be added to it and can be consumed, 30 minutes before food. It relieves the reflux esophagitis and gastritis. 👉Fenugreek decoction (herbal tea) with ghee in constipation and hemorrhoids: 5-10 gram seeds are taken and cooked well with a cup of water and decoction is made. This is consumed while it is lukewarm along with half a spoon of ghee. This eases the bowel and hence relieves constipation as well as hemorrhoids.


( NOTE — It is advised to seek personal consultation as per your ailment before consuming any remedy as there are also other parameters in the body which has to be checked ) 🚫 DON’T CONSUME FENUGREEK FREQUENTLY OR EXCESSIVELY IF YOU HAVE ISSUES LIKE BURNING SENSATION OR ANY BLEEDING DISORDERS OR DURING MENSTRUATION AS WELL. TAKE CARE 😊
