The seeds are high in dietary fibre, which may be the main reason for its ability to help lower blood sugar levels in diabetes. In 2001 diabetes researchers in Jaipur, India noted that fenugreek lowers blood sugar levels in Type 2 diabetes mellitus, reducing resistance to insulin and removing excess triglycerides in the blood. The fibre and saponins are known to lower elevated cholesterol and blood lipids, including in those with diabetes, while its hormonal qualities are reported to combat loss of virility in men, according to several controlled studies.
