Experts clarify benefits of cumin and fenugreek water for belly fat reduction

Karachi: The trend of consuming cumin and fenugreek seed water on an empty stomach in the morning to reduce belly fat is rapidly increasing, but health experts say these drinks do not directly burn fat.

According to gastroenterology specialists, cumin water helps improve digestion, reduce bloating, and support the body’s metabolic system. As a result, it may help reduce abdominal discomfort and indirectly support fat utilization processes in the body.

On the other hand, fenugreek seed water is believed to help control appetite, regulate blood sugar levels, improve fat metabolism, and support gut health. Experts say these properties may indirectly contribute to weight management and reduction of belly fat.

Nutrition experts note that fenugreek water may be more effective for appetite control and blood sugar regulation, while cumin water is more beneficial for improving digestion and reducing bloating.

Health professionals have also warned that pregnant women, individuals with sensitive stomachs, and diabetic patients should consult a doctor before consuming these remedies regularly.

Experts further emphasized that both cumin and fenugreek seeds are beneficial only when used alongside a balanced diet and regular physical activity.
