The book is a unique compilation of information on
sources on traditional wisdom as well as modern
medicinal scientific literature collected from various
primary sources such as peer‑reviewed journals.
The diverse areas of fenugreek, such as traditional
wisdom, chemistry, nutritional, medicinal, food
preparations and formulations, and regulatory status,
are addressed in the book through individual chapters
written by highly experienced academic and industrial
professionals.

The books follow an evidence‑based approach with
extensive citations and reference lists at the end of
each chapter, which can be valuable for obtaining
more information on a specific topic of interest. Thus,
the book has comprehensive documentation on the
fenugreek‑specific scientific research since the last
fenugreek‑specific was published in 2002. The book
indeed will encourage new areas of research and
health applications for fenugreek or fenugreek‑based
products.
