What is fenugreek?
Fenugreek is an annual legume of the Fabaceae family, cultivated since Antiquity across the Mediterranean basin, India and the Middle East. The plant grows from 30 cm to 1 metre, bears small pale flowers that turn into pods, and each pod holds ten to twenty angular seeds, yellow to golden brown. It is these seeds, harvested at maturity, that are ground and packed into capsules here.
Its name comes from the Latin foenum graecum, literally "Greek hay". In Arabic it is called halba; in older French, sénégrain or trigonelle.
A seed at the heart of world cuisines
Before being a supplement, fenugreek is above all a spice. Its roasted seeds go into many blends: curries and vadouvan in India, colombo in the Caribbean, North African spice mixes. In Egypt and India, it was long added to bread dough. Its young leaves, fresh or dried (the famous Indian methi), are cooked as a vegetable or a herb.
In the Maghreb, halba holds a special place in family culinary traditions, particularly in dishes served at the great milestones of life. It is this heritage, passed down through generations, that explains the enduring place of fenugreek in Mediterranean and Oriental households.
Why the capsule format?
Taste, solved
Fenugreek seed has a bitter flavour and a very recognisable smell that not everyone enjoys. The capsule settles the question: no contact with the palate.
Consistent dosing
Each capsule contains the same amount, whereas seeds or powder need weighing or measuring by the spoon. Easier to keep track of day to day.
Practical on the go
A bottle slips into a bag. No preparation, no infusion, no equipment: the simplest form to take to work or on a trip.
Halal capsules
A detail that matters to part of our customers and that is stated on the bottle, alongside the 100% natural, additive-free and GMO-free mentions.
Directions for use
Take the capsules with a large glass of water. Follow the daily dose stated on the bottle label and do not exceed it. A food supplement is no substitute for a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Keep out of reach of children.

FAQ – Fenugreek capsules
How many capsules should be taken per day?
Refer to the daily dose stated on the bottle label and do not exceed it. Dosages vary from one product to another depending on the amount of plant per capsule: never transpose the dosage of another brand.
What is the difference between capsules, seeds and fenugreek powder?
They are the same plant in three forms. Seeds and powder are mainly used in cooking and allow free dosing, but come with the characteristic bitter taste. Capsules mask that taste and offer consistent, portable dosing. The choice depends above all on your intended use.
Does fenugreek cause a particular body odour?
This is indeed something some people report after taking it for a while: perspiration can take on a characteristic smell, close to that of the seed. It disappears once you stop. Worth knowing before you start.
When should the capsules be taken?
Follow the instructions on the bottle label, which specify the recommended timing for this product. Capsules are generally taken with a large glass of water.
Are the capsules halal?
Yes, the halal capsules mention appears on the bottle, alongside the 100% natural, additive-free and GMO-free statements.
Can it be taken alongside medical treatment?
Not without medical advice. Fenugreek may interact with certain treatments, particularly anticoagulants and diabetes medication. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking it, even though it is a natural product.
What is fenugreek called in Arabic?
Halba. It is also known as sénégrain, trigonelle or Greek hay in French, and as methi in India for its leaves.
