Not only do organic fenugreek seeds add flavour to your dishes, they also have a number of health benefits.

They have been used for centuries as a natural digestive aid and to support respiratory health.
In addition, fenugreek seeds have traditionally been used to support breastfeeding and milk production in lactating women. It is believed that the compounds in fenugreek may help to stimulate milk production and increase milk flow. However, more research is needed to confirm these effects and it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before using fenugreek for this purpose.
