Yes I have Sheba and most of the information is of USA origin.

Just thought someone from here might have had some first hand knowledge.

I know Cinnamon is very good. I mix it with honey and have it every day. Hope its reducing something. Either blood sugars or cholestoral.
I do have a full printout my sister sent me. Will have to read it through.

Ok. No mention of sugar levels but found this among many cures.

Cholestoral:
Two tablespoons of honey and three teaspoons of cinnamon powder mixed in 16 oz of tea water will reduce the level of cholestoral by 10 percent in 2 hours.

It does say these doses will not affect adversely any diabetic patients.

Hi Ma, I found this site for you to have a look at: www.naturaltherapypages.com.au They do say, and I quote: 'With ginseng, the ability to concentrate may be decreased and blood sugar may decrease to abnormally low levels.'

So please be careful with how you intend to use it.

Hi Ma

I am a diabetic so i have an interest in any reply to this thread.

I am a member of a great online help diabetic forum so i checked there for an answer but i couldn't find any reference to it in the search. Consider joining and if anyone can give you a correct and healthy answer they will.

For me a quick walk works wonders for lowering BS, good for the heart too. I measure by blood sugar levels three times a day so i know it works.

Thanks for the link CCB will certainly follow that up.

Thanks Romy and Marj too. Will check them all out

Cinnamon speeds up your metabolism as well, so could be good for losing weight?
