Question

What are fenugreek and red clover tea used to treat?

Answer 1

Fenugreek

Fenugreek is still purported to be used to treat several dozen conditions, but its positive affect on diabetes seems to be the most medically well documented. Fenugreek seeds have traditionally been used in the treatment of diabetes for centuries.

In the last several decades, various well-controlled studies have identified a hypoglycemic activity of various fenugreek seed extracts in rabbits, rats, and dogs. While there have been some human studies in India, the size has been too small to come up with a statistically significant result, although they do show that the seed extracts have a hypoglycemic affect in diabetics, which is to say - it lowers the blood sugar.
