Recently I started taking 2 capsules of cinnamin each morning. It reduced my cravings for sugar. So I researched it further. Take a look!
Even if you don’t have diabetes the health benefits of cinnamon are many—it supports digestive function, constricts and tones tissues, relieves congestion, relieves pain and stiffness of muscles and joints, relieves menstrual discomfort, it has blood thinning compounds that stimulate circulation, it helps to prevent urinary tract infections, tooth decay and gum disease, and it contains a powerful anti-microbial agent that can kill E. coli and other bacteria. http://www.oliveandpeach.com/articles/show/54
In a December 2003 Diabetes Care study, cinnamon was found to improve glucose and lipids in people with diabetes. Sixty patients with type 2 who were taking a sulfonylurea (glyburide) were given one of three doses of cinnamon (1, 3 or 6 grams per day) or a placebo for 40 days.
Fasting blood glucose declined by 18 to 29 percent after 40 days in all three cinnamon treated groups. Specifically, 1 gram per day decreased glucose from 209 to 157 mg/dl, 3 grams per day decreased glucose from 205 to 169 mg/dl and 6 grams per day decreased glucose from 234 to 166 mg/dl.

Creates a thermogenic burn. It reduces cholesterol levels – in particular, lowering bad cholesterol while leaving good cholesterol the same. It is cinnamon’s effect on blood sugar that makes it a potential help in the war against obesity, insulin resistance, sometimes known as "prediabetes," and the "Metabolic Syndrome." Cinnamon can be used in its powdered or stick form, adding it to drinks and foods, or as a supplement.
