Fenugreek is important herb because of their high phytochemical content, dietary fibre level, and nutritional value. Fenugreek have a wide range of nutritional and physiological benefits and its value added products have been provided in this study. Objective: To characterize the Fenugreek seeds powder for its nutritional and chemical profile. Methods: Fenugreek was analysed for its chemical contents i.e. moisture, crude fibre, ash, crude fat and protein, minerals and antioxidants was quantified according to their procedures. Results: The results showed fenugreek had higher values of proximate testing and other nutrients like minerals. The results showed fenugreek had higher antioxidants. Conclusions: In conclusion, Fenugreek outperform most chemical, nutritional, vitamin, and outstrip Fenugreek antioxidants criteria. It is convincingly suggested that Fenugreek be included in a diet-based treatment for rheostat lifestyle-related illnesses.
