| I sprinkle cinnamon on anything I can....or put cinnamon sticks in my tea. I took cinnamon capsules for awhile, but they cause me to have heartburn. I did notice that when I didn't have the cinnamon, my levels were a little higher. It's so easy to add, whether it really works or not, that I do it.
There's a recipe for cinnamon tea you can find by googling "cinnamon tea" that's quite good.
