Cinnamon can helps control blood sugar

Cinnamon contains a host of vitamin and minerals needed for healthy body function and healing. Researchers at the USDA have found that cinnamon speeds the conversion of glucose into energy, quickly moving excess blood sugar of human bloodstream and into cells where it’s needed. Cinnamon triggered intestinal hormones that delay stomach emptying and improve insulin efficiency.

Scientists added cinnamon to rice pudding and found those who ate it had a significantly lower rise in blood sugar after eating compared to participants who ate pudding without cinnamon.

Two teaspoon of cinnamon will lower blood sugar response to a serving of carbohydrate by 13 percent. The effect lasts for at least 12 hours. The US Agricultural Research Services says less than half a teaspoon of cinnamon daily reduces blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes.

In addition to lowering blood sugars levels, cinnamon lowers the level of fats and the amount of cholesterols shipped out from the liver in LDL. Cinnamon also is credited with being able to invigorate white cells, thereby boosting the immune system.
