Answers:
Yes, you can use it for stomach issues!. Typically, the recommended dose for oral use is 1-6 g three times a day!. Doses as high as 50-100 g/day have been used in clinical trials so that should be safe!.
Or if you have some baking soda, use 1/2 teaspoon in a glass of water, that should help you as well!. But do not use the soda if you have high blood pressure problems!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Fenugreek will create bulky movements for you because the the fibre in them (called mucilage) will soak up water like a sponge ~ thus expanding to many times their original size and adding bulk to your stool, which triggers peristalsis!. Mucilage also softens stool so that it passes more comfortably with less straining!. As a result this bulk forming herb will also help prevent haemorrhoids!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!. Don't use this herb if you have colitis, Crohn's disease, dverticulitis or any condition that can cause obstrction of the gastrointestinal tract!.!.!.!.!.!.!. it's bulk forming action can aggravate these health problems!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!. in addition, do not take it with antidiarrhoeals or other drugs that inhibit peristalsis!.
