Abstract
The active therapeutic constituents of fenugreek seeds are 4-hydroxy isoleucine
(Hajimehdipoor et al., 2008), lysine and L-tryptophan rich proteins, mucilaginous fibre
(galactomannan) and other rare chemical constituents such as saponins, coumarin,
fenugreekine, nicotinic acid, sapogenins, phytic acid, scopoletin and trigonelline, which are
thought to account for many of its presumed therapeutic effects like inhibition of cholesterol
absorption and lowering blood sugar level (Bukhari et al., 2008).
