A surprising health secret: this is how to lower blood sugar levels without drugs

Cinnamon is considered a spice that reduces blood sugar, a group of researchers decided to check the issue again, and the results were published in this month’s issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.In the study, overweight and pre-diabetic participants were given a teaspoon of cinnamon every day for four weeks. After that for another four weeks, they didn’t get a teaspoon of cinnamon.

They checked the amount of sugar of the participants fasting and after the meal, and according to the results – the consumption of cinnamon reduced blood sugar levels. Triglyceride levels also decreased while taking the cinnamon supplement.

No stomachaches or digestive problems were observed after this amount of cinnamon per day. According to the researchers, this is a cheap supplement available to everyone and they even recommend incorporating cinnamon into the daily menu.

I add one last sentence for your attention – cinnamon reduces blood sugar for a few hours, which means that as long as you want its effect, you have to consume it every day and not “once in a…”. If it tastes good to you, you can for example add it to oatmeal in the morning, or to a protein shake if you drink one, or even to coffee/hot cocoa.
