The 2018 Diabetes Canada guidelines acknowledge that some trials lasting longer than three months have demonstrated that fenugreek can lower A1C by at least 0.5% but do not include a recommendation as there is not enough evidence about its safety or efficacy. Fenugreek supplements has most often been used by adults in doses of 0.5-10 grams daily for up to 16 weeks for the purpose of lowering blood sugar. As it is known to cause GI upset, dosage should be adjusted based on individual tolerance and the daily dose can be divided over 2-3 times daily for better tolerance.
