Use of Cinnamon as a spice dates back to almost 7th Century BC. Its distinct taste aids its use in both sweet and savory dishes. The main substance in Cinnamon called cinnamaldehyde not only helps in reducing insulin resistance, but also in reducing fasting blood sugar levels while combined with other pro-diabetic substances like fenugreek .
Just sprinkle half a tsp of cinnamon powder over your dishes or add half an inch of cinnamon bark while tempering. What do you think about this use in diabetes?
