Are you doing cinnamon? My doc said I was pre-diabetes due to family history. I was already working out, but I added Cinnabetic and my blood glucose dropped like a rock.

I've just been told I have slightly high blood sugar -- 103. What this cinnamon thing?

Not doing cinnamon, but several other OTC things: fenugreek, garlicin, potassium chloride, magnesium, bilberry, multiple vitamins, and omega-3 oils, among others. That and plenty of exercise and changes to diet. When I went to the doctor two weeks ago, all my reading were well within normal. BP dropped from 160/110 to 130/80, and its often lower than that. But it hasn't been easy . . .

I was in the same position, without the working out (just yet, need to loose a little more weight to save my knees). Same thing, although my Doc never said anything about Cinnabetic, just regular old cooking Cinnamon, but also said you could get it in capsules in health food stores. Tried the loose cooking sort, but yuck. The only problem with the capsules is they make me burp cinnamon, but I guess there's worse tastes to sample a second time. Doc was suitably pleased at the follow up.
