Looking for a simple, natural way to improve your health and beauty? Fenugreek water (methi water) is a traditional home remedy gaining popularity for its multiple benefits. Delhi-based doctor Dr Rekha Saroha, who has over 288k followers on Instagram, shared a video highlighting how this easy drink can help with blood sugar, heart health, weight management and glowing skin.
Easy Fenugreek Water Recipe
Dr Rekha explains that making fenugreek water is simple. All you need is one teaspoon of fenugreek seeds and a glass of water. Soak the seeds overnight and drink the water on an empty stomach the next morning. You can drink it lukewarm or as it is. The leftover seeds can also be turned into a paste to apply on hair or skin for added nourishment.
Health Benefits
Dr Rekha lists several benefits of fenugreek water:
Lowers Blood Sugar: Fenugreek seeds are rich in soluble fiber, which slows sugar absorption and helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels. This makes it especially helpful for diabetic patients.
Supports Heart Health: Regular intake can reduce cholesterol and improve heart function. The antioxidants in fenugreek seeds fight oxidative stress, promoting long-term cardiovascular wellness.
Aids Digestion and Weight Management: The fiber in fenugreek seeds improves digestion, reduces bloating, and supports fat metabolism, helping with weight management.
Boosts Skin and Hair Health: Fenugreek water helps strengthen hair, reduce dandruff, and improve skin glow. It can even help reduce acne when the soaked seeds are applied as a paste.
According to NDTV Health, fenugreek water also balances hormones, particularly in women experiencing menopausal symptoms or PCOS, thanks to its phytoestrogen content. Studies have also shown it can lower uric acid levels, promoting joint health and reducing inflammation.
Dr. Rekha emphasises consistency. Soak 1–2 teaspoons of fenugreek seeds in water overnight, strain, and drink in the morning. Even a small daily habit like this can contribute to overall wellness over time.
She encourages everyone to try it for a natural health boost. She reminds viewers that simple, daily routines can make a big difference for the body and mind. Always consult a doctor if you have existing health conditions, but for most people, this easy home remedy can support blood sugar, heart health, digestion and beauty.
