No matter what I did, I couldn’t get a morning/fasting sugar lower than 100mg/dl. Then I started taking plain cinnamon caps. My morning sugars are in the low-normal range now. It really WORKS for Type II. Of course, this doesn’t mean I can once again start eating all the junk I was stuffing into my piehole before...

Where can one obtain the cinnamon caps? Sounds like it’s worth a try.

When, how often and how much are you taking? I take a bunch o’supplements and for some reason have just not been able to work cinnamon into the mix, even after buying a big jar of it. I’ve tried so many things that don’t work or don’t work consistently for me, that I hate to shove down another horse pill w/no real benefit.

Portion control and diet are still key, but every little bit helps. Since menopause I have had problems w/my a.m. bgs, tho the other readings seem to be manageable.

My dad suposedly cured himself of diabetes by eliminating all forms of sugar, except fresh fruit, and he started running marathons. He was diabetes free for approx 20 years, then it came back and he’s been on insulin now for 10-15 years. I’m gonna tell him about the cinnamon thing. That would be really cool if he could go off insulin again.
