[QUOTE="ButtterflyLady, post: 914814, member: 43498"] Thanks for this info. It's a really interesting site and I'm going to have a good look around it. I'm glad cinnamon has helped you. I read the (very good) article you linked and looked at the abstracts of some of the key studies of the 19 it cited. While the laboratory studies showed an effect (which means the results are promising for humans), the human trials didn't conclusively show that cinnamon reduces blood glucose in diabetic people. That doesn't mean I think your experience isn't real, or that cinnamon wouldn't help any of us if we tried it. It could well help. But so far there haven't been scientific studies strongly showing that it is effective for this use. I think the studies that exist show a lot of promise though, and I hope more research is done on cinnamon. I don't feel I need to try it out at this time, but if others want to give it a try it's probably worth a go. And if I have trouble reducing my BGs after improving my diet again, I might give cinnamon a try. At least it's not an expensive supplement. [/QUOTE]
