Health Benefits of Garlic and Fenugreek Seeds
Nutrients play an essential role in the functioning and development of the human body. A diet that is taken by an organism should be balanced, and it must contain an adequate amount of all the necessary nutrients required for healthy growth and development. Furthermore, incorporating spices into our meals is one way that we can keep our immunity level high which is important.
Today, I am going to discuss the health benefits of garlic and fenugreek seeds that we need to intake in our daily meals. Garlic is an indispensable ingredient in cookery. It is traditionally used as a spice, especially in Asian cuisine, and is well known for its medicinal properties with varied pharmacological functions.
The major components of garlic include allicin, ajoene, various allyl sulfides, Sallylmercaptocysteine, linoleic acid, selenium, and quercetin(Sengupta, Ghosh, Bhattacharjee, & Das, 2004). The recent findings on garlic show that it has sulfur-containing compounds that aid in preventing cardiovascular diseases and cancer.
Similarly, fenugreek has a history of use as a traditional medicine in India and China. These magical seeds have a medicinal property that controls high blood glucose and lipid levels in people with diabetes. Furthermore, Singletary (2017) suggests that fenugreek seeds are the best treatment for weakness, lactation, appetite stimulant, a remedy for indigestion, baldness, and fever. However, the main potential benefit of fenugreek is improving elevated blood glucose levels and lipid levels associated with chronic conditions such as diabetes and obesity.
