Fenugreek seed extract

Fenugreek seed extract is a natural bioactive component derived from the mature seeds of ​Trigonella foenum-graecum​ (Fabaceae family), primarily containing ​saponins (e.g., diosgenin)​​ and ​4-hydroxyisoleucine. Recognized as the "master of metabolic regulation" with 6,000 years of cultivation history, its blood sugar control, testosterone-boosting, and lactation-enhancing properties are validated by both modern nutrition science and traditional medicine, making it a key functional ingredient in diabetes management and sports supplements.
