Default Fenugreek and blood sugars

Hi. Dennis here -- there already might be a thread about the supplement Fenugreek on this forum but I can't seem to get the search function to work so forgive me if this is a duplicate. If it is kindley provide a link to that discussion.

A lady I know says her diabetic father takes fenugreek with meals and says keeps his blood sugar from spiking.

I don't think he is doing a very low carb diet so he's probably eating lots of "healthy" carbs. I would think if you don't eat foods that cause your BG to spike in the first place you really wouldn't need this supplement. Also I would think if this supplement really lowers BG then there could be a danger of people doing strict low carb eating of going too low with this (that is if it really works).

Assuming this did work it would probably be best for moderate low carb diets.

Anyone have experience with this supplement?

The "secret" to using the search box is...it has been turned off. Doesn't work. At All. But Google does! so the quick way to do a search here is UNDER the box, see "Advanced Search"...just click that and fill in the Google Search Box. Watch the dates...all threads come up back to 01. There have been threads here, mostly old, and in Nutritional Supplements forum on it in the past. I haven't even heard of it. Other than ACV, the only other I know of (and only because Jimmy Moore advertises it) is Berberine.
