Great news for cinnamon lovers!
New research presented at the Experimental Biology meeting in San Francisco found that cinnamon and cloves - spices high in nutrients called polyphenols - boost insulin function while lowering cholesterol.
In fact, as little as a quarter teaspoon of cinnamon, taken two times per day, can stimulate the body’s insulin-like activity while lowering triglycerides, cholesterol and glucose levels by 10 to 30 percent.
So go ahead and sprinkle some cinnamon in your coffee or tea or mix a healthy helping into a baked sweet potato. You’ll delight your taste buds and balance your blood sugar as well.
