POTENTIAL SIDE EFFECTS
Excessive consumption of fenugreek can lead to a curry like body odour
Contraindicated in patients who suffer from celery-carrot-mugwort spice syndrome. Allergic reactions to fennel are rare and seem to be limited to occupational exposure. A medical source cites fenugreek as having the potential to interact with warfarin and potentially increase the risk of bleeding. Large or frequent doses of fenugreek may inhibit iron absorption. There are however other herbs in this blend that do balance this effect and support iron absorption
Caution is advised when using fenugreek in diabetic or hypoglycaemic patients because the herb has been shown to lower blood glucose; however, this does not appear to be a significant effect, with blood sugar changes only minimal, even in non insulin dependant diabetic patients.
For men, research has shown anti fertility and anti androgenic effects on male rats who were fed a fenugreek extract.
