Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Diabetes / November 2005Cinnamon ??
Dear Friends, This morning in the Arizona Republic newspaper, Dr. Andrew Weil wrote about the study of the use of cinnamon in the treatment of Type II diabetes. He was fairly non-commital in his article -- stating that 'more study' is needed. Has anyone here been following latest developments in cinnamon use ?? TIA, -Mel Smith > Dear Friends, > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Has anyone here been following latest developments in cinnamon use ?? I haven't been following it because I tried it a few years back and it raised my BG to unacceptable levels. I should add that I also have Fibromyalgia. We used to have another poster here who also has Fibro. and the same thing happened to her. When you have Fibro., you can have odd reactions to things. I also found that I had the constant taste of cinnamon in my mouth after a while and I didn't like that. I was glad to quit taking it!  SignatureSee my webpage: http://mysite.verizon.net/juliebove/index.htm Most of the observations here over a lot of years have been: no help, little help, we like the taste, no opinion either way. Like me - no effect on diabetes but I like a piece of cinnamon stick in my instant coffee. Nan, Type 2 since 1990. Julie and Nan, Thanks for your opinions. Anyway, while you were replying, I went out to WalMart and bought 3 bottles of cinnamon capsules (500mg and 100 capsules per bottle). Bottles cost $4.76 each. Question: Since I'm going to give the cinnamon a trial run -- when is the *best* time of day to take the cinnamon capsule(s) ? Thanks again for your replies. -Mel Smith Mesa, Arizona > Julie and Nan, > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > Question: Since I'm going to give the cinnamon a trial run -- when is the > *best* time of day to take the cinnamon capsule(s) ? I took it with each meal. SignatureSee my webpage: http://mysite.verizon.net/juliebove/index.htm |
