  • Title: Pseudo-maple syrup urine disease due to maternal prenatal ingestion of fenugreek.
    Author: Korman SH, Cohen E, Preminger A.
    Journal: J Paediatr Child Health; 2001 Aug; 37(4):403-4. PubMed ID: 11532065.
    Abstract:
    Fenugreek, maple syrup and the urine of maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) patients all share a characteristic odour originating from a common component, sotolone. Ingestion of fenugreek by mothers during labour resulted in a maple syrup-like odour in their newborn infants, leading to a false suspicion of MSUD.
