Methiche ladoo, the traditional energy bites.

Energy bites for the entire year. 

Today “Energy bites” is a buzzword. Many people, who regularly work out, like to have protein-packed ‘energy bites’ made from oats or peanut butter. But is there a traditional Indian alternative? Yes, although considered a winter special, ‘Methiche ladoo’ are the “energy bites” for the entire year.

 

Methiche ladoo are well-suited for all family members.

 New Mom Lactating Mother with Child

For New Moms

Traditionally, Methiche ladoo are recommended for lactating mothers for rapid recovery after childbirth. Methi or fenugreek helps in establishing lactation, which helps babies gain weight quickly after birth. These laddus have jaggery instead of white sugar. Jaggery is rich in iron – about 61% of the Daily Value (DV). This helps in restoring haemoglobin levels in the blood.

For Fitness Fans And Kids

Methi laddu are great as ‘energy bites’ for children and adults as they boost general strength and vigour. Fenugreek improves metabolism as it is a good source of fibre and protein. One tablespoon of fenugreek contains 3 grams of protein, 3 grams of fibre, and most importantly, iron 20% of the Daily Value (DV). This iron and protein help in improving performance during heavy workouts such as lifting weights.

 Elderly with Methi Ladoo

For Older Adults

Methiche ladoo has been a folk remedy for arthritis. When small joints get inflamed, and their movement causes pain, Methi ladoo are traditionally served as a home remedy. Of course, it is a good idea to consult your doctor before you feed Methi ladoo as a remedy to older adults. Some older adults tend to get frail. Methi ladoo can help them meet calorie requirements without being too ‘heavy’ to digest.

 

Now comes the real question - How can one get Methi ladoo easily and regularly? Given that the recipe is so intricate, making them at home now and then seems tedious.
