Look for Cassia, NOT Celylon.It has some paarmeceutical companies in a real tizz as they can't replicate it's qualities and sell it.It's also excellent at lowering Cholesterol.Be advised however of the courmarin levels which although minor some argue can be toxic, One way to kill the courmarin its to strain the cinnamon into a tea leaving the bark behind, this way you get the goodness of the cinnamon without the toxic coumarin.Of course tablet form may already have taken care of this, but Cinnamon is so cheap!Gymnema I swear by, it's bloody brilliant and as note before can stimulate beta cell growth in the Pancreas, which is great for type 2.Bitter melon is also potent  and safe but I agree more expensive and from Himlilaya herbals has to be taken with each meal if memory serves me correctly.I don't take metformin.</blockquote>
