Description

Unleash the power of nature with Edens Garden Fenugreek oil, a hidden gem that brings a touch of shimmer to your hair and skin. This extraordinary oil is derived from the seeds of the fenugreek plant (Trigonella foenum-graecum) and is used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine to aid digestion and alleviate menstrual discomfort. It is a nutrient-rich carrier oil with a wide range of benefits that promote skin and hair health that absorbs quickly into the skin leaving it glowing and hair shiny.

Fenugreek oil has many potential applications. For digestive health benefits, massaging it topically in a clockwise direction to the abdomen may help to relieve symptoms of indigestion, bloating and constipation. For skin, it is rich in antioxidants and especially moisturizing making it an exceptional oil for aging skin. Some small studies have noted its anti-inflammatory properties which may calm dry skin and scalp irritations and assist wound healing.

Some simple ways to incorporate Fenugreek oil into your everyday life include applying the carrier oil onto the skin after bathing or showering. Apply a small amount of the oil onto skin irritations and small wounds. Use it in aromatic essential oil blends in roll-ons with your favorite essential oils to wear as a natural perfume. Use Fenugreek oil for its warming properties and as a traditional healing massage oil on sore muscles and stiff joints.

Carrier oils are 4 oz and come with a pump.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to make Fenugreek oil?
  • First, it should be noted that Fenugreek oil and Fenugreek oil are two different products. Fenugreek oil is made by cold pressing the seeds to extract the seed oil. The cold pressed machine method is a process where the final product contains only the extracted oil from the seeds. Fenugreek-infused oil, on the other hand, is made by macerating the seeds in a carrier oil infusion. This oil can be easily made at home using an old folk method of soaking the seeds in a clean glass mason jar with a neutral oil such as Jojoba oil in the sun for 4-6 weeks. You must shake the jar every day, then after the stated period of time, strain the seeds from the oil for the final infused (macerated) Fenugreek oil.
How to use Fenugreek oil for hair growth?
  • Like many other plant oils filled with linoleic acid and other essential fatty acids, Fenugreek oil is a source of iron and protein and vitamin E which are nutrients that help stimulate new hair growth and help add volume to those with hair loss. This is thought to happen because of the anti-inflammatory and antifungal properties of the seeds. To use this product for hair loss, massage a small amount into the fingertips and massage evenly to the entire scalp. Let the oil sit on the scalp for a few hours to overnight and rinse out the next day. Repeat for a few weeks until you see improvement in hair growth.
What is Fenugreek oil good for?
  • Trigonella foenum-graecum, aka Fenugreek oil, has been touted with health benefits as a remedy for skin irritations and hair growth stimulation with those that suffer from hair loss. Its anti-inflammatory and antifungal properties are thought to help improve hair volume and luster as well as help reduce dandruff and other scalp issues.
Can I drink Fenugreek oil?
  • We do not recommend ingesting Fenugreek oil as it may result in breathing problems and may interfere with and cause side effects with prescription drugs. If you want to ingest this oil we advise speaking with your doctor first. However, we do recommend using it topically on skin and scalp for its potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antifungal and digestive aid abilities.
Does Fenugreek oil affect breast health?
  • According to Memorial Sloan Kettering, lab studies have shown that hormone-sensitive cancers “show that fenugreek acts as an estrogenic receptor modulator and may increase the growth of breast cancer cells.” However, in cases of breast milk production, Fenugreek is thought to boost the production of breast milk. The reasoning for this is that the mammary glands are a type of modified sweat gland that is stimulated by hormones.

Fragrance of South Asia

An amazing sweet, woody and bitter aroma. As far as carrier oils go, fenugreek does have a more pronounced aroma. It smells exactly like the seeds and reminds me of a South Asian household. The oil goes on great alone and blends well with many other carri

For menopause help

I'm using this Fenugreek carrier oil to help with my menopause transition. I read Fenugreek has phytoestrogenic properties. I know Fenugreek is available as a supplement, but for now I prefer this topical oil for a gentle phytoestrogenic effect. I rub it on my chest and belly. I am feeling more grounded and balanced and will continue to use this.
