Description:
I recent read an article claiming that cinnamon can increase insulin sensitivity. Further research revealed that this is true and that cinnamon has been used to treat type 2 diabetes in South America for rather a long time. This is important, because recent research supports the claim that a majority of Americans are in the early stages of type 2 diabetes. Since type 2 diabetes is caused by insulin resistance, a lack of cell sensitivity to insulin, increasing insulin sensitivity is potentially very good. This recipe has 3 grams of cinnamon, instead of 1. Some of the research I found shows that 1 gram daily takes about 40 days to reach its full effects. On the other hand, 3 grams daily takes only 30 days. (And 6 grams daily only takes 20, but I did not want to add that much.)As usual, for a thick mixture, mix this with enough water to fill three 20fl oz Gatorade bottles (so, with water, you get 60fl oz). If you want it thinner, add enough water to get 80fl oz total (or just add water to the desired thickness). For best results, blend the mixture.

Information:
Low calories again. I recommend figuring out your recommended calorie intake based on your weight and height, then adding more calories as recommended in my Documents post.This recipe has enough cinnamon to increase insulin sensitivity, and should take only 30 days to see the full benefits. Also, a packet of processed stevia sweetener can be added to potentially increase insulin sensitivity. (This statement has not been reviewed by the FDA etc...)
