you know you are taking enough turmeric if you start having a craving for pepper (instead of salt) on everything
Cinnamon just makes you feel good
I am sure you already know this, that cinnamon is the only substance known which helps reduce high blood sugar levels in diabetics. I sprinkle it on my eggs, tea, coffee, and use it almost anything I cook at home. I am not diabetic but was told I could be pre-diabetic by my doc. As for turmeric, it is the major ingredient in curry powder, so I eat plenty of it because I love curry powder. To get best flavor from curry powder, saute it in hot oil prior to mixing it with food.
