Fenugreek Seed Extract
Part of our Herbal Extracts range, manufactured and exported by Arizone International LLP.
Fenugreek Seed Extract is a concentrated powder made from the seeds of Trigonella foenum-graecum, known in India as methi. It is standardised to saponins, fibre or other markers and is widely used in sports nutrition, men's wellness, blood sugar support and lactation supplements, as well as in functional foods.
Arizone International manufactures and exports Fenugreek Seed Extract in several standardisations for supplement brands, sports nutrition companies, food manufacturers and private label businesses.
India and Fenugreek
India is by far the world's largest producer of fenugreek. Most of the crop is grown in Rajasthan, followed by Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh, as a winter crop. Methi seeds are used in Indian tadkas, pickles and spice blends, and the leaves are cooked as a vegetable. Fenugreek has also been used for centuries in Ayurveda and in traditional medicine in the Middle East and North Africa.
How Fenugreek Seed Extract Is Made
Cleaned seeds are ground and extracted with water, ethanol or a mix of both, depending on the compounds to be concentrated. The extract is purified, concentrated and spray dried into a light yellow to brown powder with a bitter taste and the characteristic maple-like aroma of fenugreek.
