Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia that mainly affects the cognitive functions of the aged populations. Trigonella foenum-graecum (L.) (fenugreek), a traditionally well utilized medicinal plant ubiquitously used as one of the main food additive worldwide, is known to have numerous beneficial health effects. Fenugreek seed extract could be able to inhibit the activity o...

BACKGROUND AND AIM Fenugreek is a herb that is widely used in cooking and as a traditional medicine for diabetes in Asia. It has been shown to acutely lower postprandial glucose levels, but the long-term effect on glycemia remains uncertain. We systematically reviewed clinical trials of the effect of fenugreek intake on markers of glucose homeostasis. METHODS PubMed, SCOPUS, the Cochrane Tria...

background: fenugreek (trigonella foenum - graecum l.) is an annual medicinal plant belongs to the legume family and has anti-diabetic, anti-fertility, anticancer, anti-microbial, anti-parasitic and hypocholesterolaemic effects. objective: evaluation of growth and trigonelline /mucilage content in fenugreek under application of plant growth regulators (pgr). methods: the experiment was conducte...

The phytochemical, physicochemical, and sensory properties of the blended kunun-zaki were determined. fermented sorghum paste was substituted for orange-fleshed sweet potato puree at 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 50% to produce potato-sorghum kunun-zaki. phytochemical composition: carotenoids, flavonoids, vitamin A content increased from 0 28.14 mg/100g, 191.50 mg/100g 0.44 7.74 respectively, while tann...

Methods Female C3H/HeJ mice were gavaged at days 0, 1, 2, 7, and 21 with fenugreek in doses ranging from 0.1 mg to 10 mg. Cholera toxin (CT) was used as an adjuvant (10 μg/mouse). The mice were euthanized on day 28, and sera were analysed for fenugreek-specific IgE using the heterologous passive cutaneous anaphylaxis assay. Based on this dose-response experiment, twenty four mice were gavaged w...

A field experiment was carried out to test the efficacy of insecticides against aphid Aphis craccivora in fenugreek at Research Farm, Agricultural Station, Mandor-Jodhpur during rabi, 2021-22. After two sprays, flonicamid 50 WG found most effective while azadirachtin 10,000 ppm (4.73 aphids/5 cm central shoot) treated plots least effective. Maximum yield (1722 kg/ha) obtained from with WG. The ...

AIM This study was undertaken to assess the pharmacodynamic interaction of fenugreek, insulin and glimepiride on sero-biochemical parameters in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 56 male Sprague-Dawley rats, randomly divided into seven Groups. Group 1: Non-diabetic control; Group 2: Streptozotocin induced diabetic control; Groups 3, 4 and 5 were treated wit...

Samples of sorghum distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) were collected and analyzed to establish a nutrient database and evaluate the quality and consistency between and within 5 ethanol plants in Kansas and Texas. Each sample (n = 21) was analyzed for AA, DM, CP, crude fiber, crude fat, ash, NDF, ADF, trace minerals, and starch. Mean values (DM basis) were 0.88% Lys, 10.49% crude fat, ...

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of fenugreek seed extract in combination with swimming exercise compared to glibenclamide consumption on type 2 diabetic rats. DESIGN The acute toxicity test was carried out to choose the safe doses and identify the toxicity effects of the fenugreek seed extract. To investigate the hypoglycemic effect of the extr...
