Function:

Preliminary research suggests that Cinnamon Extract can help maintain normal serum glucose

(blood sugar) levels as well as normal triglyceride, and cholesterol levels.

Studies have shown that 1,000 mgs per day of Cinnamon Extract may significantly help people with Type II

Diabetes improve their ability to respond to insulin thus normalizing their blood sugar levels. Test results have

shown the Cinnamon Extract stimulates insulin receptors and can also inhibit an enzyme that inactivates them;

thus significantly increasing the cell’s ability to use glucose. This activity is supported by the Journal of

Agricultural and Food Chemistry.

Applications:

Cinnamon Bark has been used throughout history, and across most cultures, as a culinary spice, for herbal bath

decoctions and as a food remedy to maintain healthy blood sugar balance. Cinnamon contains the constituent,

cinnamaldehyde, found in the volatile oil fraction of the plant. Cinnamaldehyde has potent antioxidant actions,

protecting cells from oxidative damage, and supporting healthy fat and cholesterol balance within the normal range.

Cinnamon bark also contains polyphenolic polymers that support healthy insulin and blood glucose balance within

the normal range, and promote healthy blood flow.
