Yes 1 tsp soaked fenugreek seeds are safe to consume. But consume it on alternate days as it lowers the blood sugar too. If you are not diabetic then it may lead to low blood sugar too.

Drinking soaked fenugreek (methi) seeds in the morning is a traditional practice often used for digestion and blood sugar support. However, the concept of a “warm body” usually relates to symptoms like acidity, mouth ulcers, burning sensation, or excess internal heat rather than actual temperature imbalance.
Guidance:
- Soaked fenugreek seeds (about 1 teaspoon soaked overnight) are generally safe if tolerated well.
- They may support digestion and metabolic health.
- However, in some people, taking them daily on an empty stomach can increase acidity or gastric discomfort.
If you frequently feel body heat or acidity, alternatives like fennel seeds water, soaked sabja (basil) seeds water, or soaked black raisins may be gentler and more cooling.
