A SPOON FULL OF CINNAMON
(Saturday) A study out of the Beltsville Human Nutrition Research Center in Maryland has demonstrated that "diabetics who incorporated one gram -- equivalent to less than one-quarter teaspoon -- of cinnamon per day for 40 days into their normal diets experienced a decrease in levels of blood sugar, cholesterol and blood fats."

The author of the study, Dr. Richard A. Anderson, suggests that "cinnamon may also help stave off the onset of type 2 diabetes in people at risk of the condition." Link
