Cinnamon Bark (600mg) 240 caps

My brother just discovered that the "cinnamon" reduces the glucose in the blood,
my father is diabetic and he has been taking 2 pills a day of this product and let me tell you that is fantastic.
Me and my husband are taking it too, we are not diabetic, but it helps to reduce all the sugar that we eat in our meals.
It is an excelent product.

This is very good cinnamon. I break the capsules open and use this like regular cinnamon, sprinkling over French toast and in other recipes. Very tasty!

This seems like just the right cinnamon capsule as called for in the studies. Good value.

The second review is the correct one to consider.
It is in fact cinnamonum verum that is best for treating blood sugar levels.
This is known as "true cinnamon", grown in Ceylon.
It is not the same as what you see on the grocery store shelves.

Casia cinn. grown in Indonesia does contain good compounds that lower high blood sugar, but also contains a TOXIC compound called "coumarin".

Best to use cinnamonum verum as shown here being sold by Now.

I applaud the prior reviewer for knowing about the 2 different kinds of cinnamon, however he/she got it precisely backwards. Ceylon is the "good" one, cassia is the cheaper alternative (found in many of the foods you eat), and is linked to head aches when too much is consumed at once. NOW is among the best vitamin brands out there (Source Naturals being the other), and this product was specifically recommended by our naturopath, Dr. Alan Tillotson (author of the "One Earth Herbal Sourcebook")
