Gregory Chandler - Cinnamon

The common spice cinnamon should be used by the fitness conscious. Cinnamon contains free-radical fighting antioxidants. In addition, as little as a half-teaspoon of cinnamon a day has been shown to enhance insulin sensitivity. The enhancement of insulin sensitivity helps to keep blood sugar levels low which prevents unwanted weight gain.

Cinnamon can be consumed in the form that comes in the spice container. For a more powerful dose of cinnamon, I recommend cinnamon extract. Cinnamon extract can be found in many nutritional supplement stores.
