Cinnamon has been called a “super spice,” that is because of its incredible health benefits. Cinnamon has been scientifically studied for decades and proven to be quite powerful. Anyone with diabetes or pre-diabetes should be taking cinnamon daily. It has been shown to help prevent diabetes because it naturally lowers blood sugar levels.
