Fenugreek powder tastes like..

[oneofthosenicemuslims2015]

Cr*p. I bought some fenugreek capsules to help increase milk supply (ebf 3 week old dd) which arrived today and realised I can't take them as the capsules are made from gelatine. So I decided to open them up and just down the powder inside the capsule with a glass of water instead. Not doing that again
Will attempt to mix next dose with juice before downing juice.

Is it ok to take the fenugreek this way? I know it's not guaranteed to increase milk supply but has helped some women so worth a try I figure.

Oh dear 'av managed to post thread twice.

It's only ground fenugreek so it isn't going to do you any harm. Might end up working out cheaper just to buy the seeds though!

You could soak them and drink them in some water or milk.

I think I'd rather stick them in a curry for lunch personally, you could get plenty down you that way :)

I actually have a jar of fenugreek powder in the spice cupboard, you're right I should have just made a big pot of curry! Why I felt the need to purchase some more I'm not exactly sure.. picks out clumps of powder between teeth
