I have been trying to find more out about cinnamon as I'm thinking of trying a supplement. Has anyone tried it?
If yes how much are you taking and do you think it helps with your blood sugar??
 
I also read that cinammon can help with diabetes ! Maybe I should treat myself to a bun lol ! I'd be interested in ( serious ) replies too ! Also, I read Metmorfin lowers B12 so do people supplement that too ?

The Cinnamon you need is Cassia Cinnamon. You can't be sure if the spice sold in the UK is Cassia, so when I use it as a spice I buy the American McCormicks brand from Ebay http://www.mccormick.com/SpicesForHealt ... namon.aspx and sprinkle a couple of grams on a home made museli mix.

I tried UK supermarket own brand cinnamon and found it didn't have the same effect as the cinnamon I had bought on holiday in America, so that's why I buy it from Ebay.

When I'm not eating the museli, I take two 500mg capsules of http://www.puritanspride.co.uk/cinnamon ... 14020.html - you have to watch the expensive postage and you may get caught for customs charges as they ship from USA.
 
Or you could try fenugreek and even tumeric.
