The alkaloid trigonelline , trigocoumarin , trimethyl coumarin and nicotinic acid are also present. Mucilage is a prominent constituent of the seeds. 5 sanjay kumar yadav 6th batch 1/18/2020

6. Pharmacology of Methi Analgesic effects : In a rat study,  Trigonella foenum-graecum  extract showed analgesic activity. Antiadhesive properties : anti-adhesive properties against  Helicobacter pylori  have been studied. The anti-adhesive property was assessed by the inhibition of binding of   H. pylori  to stomach sections. Antitumor activity : In rat study, the hrebal product of Trigonella foenum-graecum showed antitumor activity . 6 sanjay kumar yadav 6th batch 1/18/2020

7. Pharmacology of Methi Antioxidant activity: In rat study, an aqueous extract of fenugreek seeds prevented the rise in lipid peroxidation . Exercise recovery effects : In trained male cyclists, 4-hydroxyisoleucine isolated from fenugreek seeds significantly increased muscle glycogen concentration to make normal body function. Hepatoprotective activity : In an vitro  study using liver cells treated with ethanol, a polyphenolic extract of fenugreek seeds significantly increased cell viability by reducing oxidation. 7 sanjay kumar yadav 6th batch 1/18/2020

8. Pharmacology of Methi Insulin sensitization effects : In rats study, 4-hydroxyisoleucine extracted from fenugreek seeds increased peripheral glucose utilization and decreased hepatic glucose production, thereby improving insulin resistance. Chronic ingestion of 4-hydroxyisoleucine significantly reduced insulinemia . Lipid-lowering effects : In animal studies, saponins extracted from fenugreek seeds lower the total cholesterol, and low density lipoprotein (LDL) levels. Sapogenins increase biliary cholesterol secretion.  8 sanjay kumar yadav 6th batch 1/18/2020
