Dietary supplement

Fenugreek dietary supplements are manufactured from powdered seeds into capsules, loose powders, teas, and liquid extracts in many countries.[4][5] Powders may also be used as a topical medication or dressing for skin wounds or eczema.[4] There is no high-quality evidence that these products have any clinical effectiveness.[4][5]

quote:

Research

Constituents of fenugreek seeds include flavonoids, alkaloids, coumarins, vitamins, and saponins; the most prevalent alkaloid is trigonelline and coumarins include cinnamic acid and scopoletin.[3] Research into whether fenugreek reduces biomarkers in people with diabetes and with pre-diabetic conditions is of limited quality.[22]

As of 2020, there was no high-quality evidence for whether fenugreek is safe and effective to relieve dysmenorrhea[4][23] or improve lactation during breastfeeding.[24] Studies of fenugreek are characterized as having variable, poor experimental design and quality, including small numbers of subjects, failure to describe methods, inconsistency and duration of dosing, and non-recording of adverse effects.[23][24]

Because research on potential biological effects of consuming fenugreek has provided no high-quality evidence for health or anti-disease effect, fenugreek is not approved or recommended for clinical use by the United States Food and Drug Administration.[4][5]

Adverse effects and allergies

Use of fenugreek has potential for serious adverse effects, as it may be unsafe for women with hormone-sensitive cancers.[4][5] Fenugreek is not safe for use during pregnancy, as it has possible abortifacient effects and may induce preterm uterine contractions.[3][4]

Some people are allergic to fenugreek, including those with peanut allergy or chickpea allergy.[3][4] Fenugreek seeds can cause diarrhea, dyspepsia, abdominal distention, flatulence, perspiration, and a maple-like smell to sweat, urine or breast milk.[3][4][5] There is a risk of hypoglycemia particularly in people with diabetes, and it may interfere with the activity of anti-diabetic drugs.[3][4] Because of the high content of coumarin-like compounds in fenugreek, it may interfere with the activity and dosing of anticoagulants and antiplatelet drugs.[3][4]

Fenugreek sprouts, cultivated from a single specific batch of seeds imported from Egypt into Germany in 2009, were implicated as the source of the 2011 outbreak of Escherichia coli O104:H4 in Germany and France.[25] Identification of a common producer and a single batch of fenugreek seeds was evidence for the origin of the outbreaks.[26]

Do they sell Kinder Surprise Eggs in the United States yet or are they still forbidden?

In case they are still banned, they are small milk/white chocolate eggs that have a plastic cylinder inside. Inside the cylinder is a surprise, usually a small toy or something.

Kind of...?

Instead of the chocolate egg, we get some white goop with a couple of crunchy bits. The prizes are still better than anything from the USA, though (says the old guy who remembers when Cracker Jack actually had cool prizes).

I don't think Jules is making MT with kids as the audience in mind. Too much crypto bro stuff. I think she doesn't know what audience she's aiming for, so she writes whatever she feels like and all the villains are the people that annoy her.

For the hate reading for Mark Trail this week, it could be that she's assuming that "retreat" implies that the location is remote. Even with road access it's not always easy to get an ambulance into remote locations, which is a mistake that gets a lot of people into trouble. Maybe the billionaire could call a medivac helicopter.

Krazy Kat remains impenetrable to me, although I like Herriman's art.

As for Nemo, I've always liked this one.
