Cinnamon goodness!

Many are already familiar with cinnamon and recognize it as a spice that people use to add taste to their fruit-salads, pastries, cereals and oatmeal. However, many are unaware of the cinnamon health benefits!

What else does cinnamon do:

Cinnamon can be used to level out your blood sugar level, in addition to acting as an antioxidant. Furthermore, this spice is also known to act as insulin, while helping to enhance the insulin sensitivity in your body. This basically means that you do not need insulin to take care of glucose, as cinnamon can get the job done for you. If there is no insulin present, it is nearly impossible for your body to be able to store any type of fat.

Here are some of the ways in which you can experience the healthy benefits of cinnamon:

1)You can add cinnamon to your drink, your yogurt or your breakfast (such as oatmeal).

2)When you are making coffee, you can add ground cinnamon to the coffee, and you can add it to your green tea as well.

3)The equivalent of three grams of cinnamon is one teaspoon. You should also try to remember that you should not consume more than three grams of cinnamon daily.

4)If you are going to use cinnamon extract, remember that 500MG of extract is equivalent to three grams of the ground form.

Cinnamon is just one shortcut of many to shedding fat more effectively. Learning those shortcuts will improve the diet you are currently on (any diet).
