Conditions addressed
How to prepare
Dosage: 4–8 oz (120–240 ml), once daily.
- Blend or cold-press: Soaked fenugreek seeds + Water + Honey + Lemon + Ginger.
- Strain if desired and serve fresh.
- Best consumed within 30 minutes of preparation for maximum nutrient retention.
Best time to drink
Best in the morning on an empty stomach, or 30 minutes before a meal — this maximizes nutrient absorption and avoids diluting digestive enzymes.
