Cool. I'll take two, then.
One more reason to have some cinnamon, my favorite spice anyway!
...learned who was consuming cinnamon.
’ been taking cinnamon for a while. It’s supposed to be good at keeping cholestrol low. You WILL have a cinnamon ‘after-taste’ occasionally.
I’ve been putting cinnamon in my food for a while now, seems to have helped my blood sugar control. Wasn’t hard to do - I like cinnamon anyway. Cinnamon in coffee anyone?
This “report” is from the same man that promotes rectal evacuation as the cure all for almost condition or disease process affecting humans. Check out the “network” site. One other snake oil sales pitch from the same old snake.
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...
Hey thanks for this post.
cinnamon is loaded with antioxidants too.
Started taking Niacin and Cinnamon - haven't noticed much difference. One supplement I can definitely, anecdotally recommend for sufferers is Cranberry Juice Concentrate. Really flushes those kidneys out. Thanks for the article.
Just saw cinammon , either powder or capsules, yesterday at COSTCO. Was in a hurry and didn’t stop but it caught my eye. It is with all of their vitamins, next to fish oil.
I’m a type 2 diabetic and use cinnamon lot on apple sauce and grits, etc., and have never really seen a difference in my blood sugars.
I detest the sugar substitutes. They taste horrible to me. But cinnamon is wonderful because it tastes sweet but is a spice, not a sugar.
Diabetics must be careful, of course, as most cinnamon treats (i.e. cinnamon rolls) have cinnamon combined with sugar and starches - meaning high carbs. But cinnamon, by itself, is harmless and a good additive for those who want a sweet taste without the sugar.
One of my favorite products is South Beach Diet Toasted Wheats. They are like mini-wheats with cinnamon added instead of sugar.

My sister, who has high Cholesteral and was borderline diabetic, changed her diet, started eating oatmeal with cinnamon on it two years ago, and is now off her meds.
