Weight Loss Tip 63 – Add a little cinnamon to your diet

There is plenty of research to pack up cinnamon’s health benefits.  Studies have shown that including cinnamon in your daily diet can help you balance your blood sugar and lose weight.  Who would think that something as simple as a little cinnamon each day might help you lower your odds of developing metabolic syndrome, obesity, heart disease or type 2 diabetes?  

Will cinnamon help me lose weight?  This answer is a resounding yes.  Cinnamon appears to lower or stabilize your blood sugar levels and increases insulin levels in the body.  High blood sugar levels can lead to increased storage of fat through the effects of insulin, so any help to stabilize insulin and blood sugar will help prevent this increased storage of fat and enables you to lose weight.  Cinnamon also promotes satiety so that you will eat less.  This effect on satiety can also help you lose weight.  For more on the evidence behind the use of cinnamon, these links contain the evidence of cinnamon and its ability to reduce fat stores.  

 

The bottom line:  A scoop of cinnamon a day will keep the fat away.  Cinnamon will promote weight loss and satiety.
