Inlife Fenugreek Oil Supplement – 500 mg – 60 Veg Capsules
Each vegetarian capsule delivers 500 mg of cold‑pressed fenugreek seed oil standardized for gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) and linoleic acid, offering natural support for hormonal balance, blood sugar management, skin health, men's and women's wellness, and metabolic function. Manufactured in certified GMP/FSSAI/ISO facilities.
Fenugreek Oil — derived from Trigonella foenum-graecum, also called methi seed oil.
Contains GLA, linoleic acid, saponins, trigonelline, alkaloids, and phytoestrogens.
Mode of Action
Hormonal regulation: Phytoestrogens and GLA modulate sex hormones, reducing PMS and menopausal symptoms (hot flashes, vaginal dryness).
Blood sugar support: Delays carbohydrate absorption and stimulates insulin activity.
Anti-inflammatory: GLA metabolizes to prostaglandin E1, reducing inflammation and supporting skin barrier.
Skin & hair support: Linoleic acid helps maintain skin hydration; anecdotal evidence suggests improved hair volume.

Skin hydration & eczema: May reduce transepidermal water loss, support dry/eczema-prone skin.
