Hypoglycaemic Effect Of Aqueous Extract Of The Leaves Of Trigonella Foenum-graecum In Healthy Volunteers

この研究の注釈:

In healthy subjects, a dose of 40mg/kg bodyweight significantly lowered blood glucose levels by 13.4% 4 hours after ingestion (in 10mL of liquid).

A decrease in blood potassium levels were also noted, as well as an _increase_ in hunger.


A Fenugreek Seed Extract Selectively Reduces Spontaneous Fat Intake In Overweight Subjects
この研究の注釈:

No changes on appetite measures were noted, although a voluntary decrease in fat intake was noted in the group that consumed Fenugreek seeds at 1176mg daily.

Fasting insulin decreased from 5.1+/-0.41mU l-^1^ to 4.73+/-0.43, whereas control experienced a rise of 0.20mU l-^1^. Slight increase in HDL, although not significant.

Subjects were healthy but overweight males, followed for 6 weeks.


A Fenugreek Seed Extract Selectively Reduces Spontaneous Fat Consumption In Healthy Volunteers
この研究の注釈:

The group with a higher dose of fenugreek seeds (1176mg daily) spontaneously reduced fat consumption by 17.3% when no controls were placed on the diet; this resulted in a reduction of caloric intake, but the trial was too short to note weight loss (14 days at the highest dose, 14 days at half-dose, cut with 14 days of wash-out; this trial was double-blind crossover).

Study conducted in completely healthy adult men.

Fasting serum insulin was lowest after the high dose of fenugreek relative to after the moderate dose and washout, but no baseline stats are available for 14 day comparison.
