Cayenne peppers are impossible to find in the northeast grocery stores. But there is always Tabasco.

Researchers in Toronto are studying capsaicin as a potential treatment for diabetes. Early work in genetically engineered mice prone to diabetes revealed it could block a key receptor site in the nervous system that may play a role in whether the mouse develops insulin resistance or diabetes

It has also been used in research regarding surgery and its ability to speed healing and reduce pain in the surgery area. Learned about that here...

I love cinnamon but a spoonful a day seems a bit much.

“Ginger is perhaps best known for its soothing effects on the digestive system. Numerous studies have established it as a safe and effective treatment for nausea. Ginger even outperformed Dramamine in a 1982 study where subjects had to sit in a spinning chair for six minutes without getting sick. They almost made it when they took the ginger; not even close with the Dramamine.”

Keep Dramamine handy just in case, ginger doesn’t work for everyone. Found this out on an 18-hour flight in which I filled a dozen airsick bags.

My grandmother made cinnamon toast for us. She toasted the bread and then buttered it and sprinkled it with a cinnamon and sugar mix. Got quite a bit of cinnamon that way, I would think.

Garlic, onions, peppers of all sorts and varieties.

And olive oil, lots for cooking and salads. It's good for your coat.

Cinnamon and ginger don't seem to be in the same category as the hot spices like cayenne, etc.

Garlic, it’s just not to repel vampires anymore!
