BUT they couldn't have patented itmelissa 589,
If cinnamaldehyde had such a strong influence on blood glucose levels, it would have found widespread use long ago. Its easily made from the bark or via synthesis. The big pharma companies would have exploited it long ago had it been effective.

Nestle are trying to patent the right to water in third world areas. Apparently water is not a human right. So I would not be so sure that a big pharmacy company could not patent a drug made from a natural resource.BUT they couldn't have patented it
Pasha,melissa 589,

I've always liked cinnamon and regularly use it in baking and used to add it when cooking apples in my pre diabetes life . But I find that if I consume too much then it gives me bad nose bleeds, which I assume is related to its blood thinning properties. My long term consumption has done nothing at all in the way of preventing or even helping with my diabetes, but I do love the stuff for its own sake!Just a wee word of caution - Cinnamon oil even if it is a natural substance is not without its contraindications, especially for those who are taking blood thinners, or during pregnancy and breast feeding.

Pasha,
I would try it, as it is really a good step by step recipe and clear homemake. No toxins and any other trash.
From your signature Melissa, it looks like we may be twins, apart from you managing to escape the coeliac thing
I love your avatar, BTW, is he or she yours ?
