About Fenugreek seed extract:
The seeds of this plant are used medicinally. Fenugreek can grow up to two feet high, and although it is a native to Europe and Asia, it is now found world wide due to its popularity. The active constituents in fenugreek are alkaloids, lysine and L-tryptophan. It also contains steroidal saponins (diosgenin, yamogenin, tigogenin, and neotigogenin) and mucilaginous fiber which are believed to be responsible for many of the beneficial effects fenugreek exhibits.
The chemical compounds found in fenugreek have the ability to aid the digestive process.As mentioned previously fenugreek contains a substantial amount of mucilaginous fiber. The mucilage found in fenugreek does not dissolve but instead swells when mixed with fluids. Since the body cannot digest the mucilage from fenugreek it is believed to be an effective laxative.
