Cinnamon. It is a tasty way to help
several health issues: migraine, blood pressure,
diabetes mellitus. Chiropractic is all about health! Nutritional approaches to
various ailments boost the body’s ability
to take care of itself. The key is figuring out which ones are
best for what! Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. shares some
of the recent papers regarding this simple
ingredient, cinnamon.
HELP FOR Auburn MIGRAINE
Cinnamon’s
anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties were tested for migraine management. Migraine, the most common primary headache
type, has increased levels of inflammation. Compared to a control treatment,
cinnamon significantly decreased levels of inflammatory agents,
interleukin-6 and nitric oxide. Cinnamon also reduced
the frequency, severity and duration of migraine attacks.
Cinnamon eased migraine in this study! Plus,
cinnamon is a safe supplement. (1) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. happily shares
research-based safe options to try for health.
BLOOD PRESSURE
Blood pressure is a familiar health condition
for many Auburn folks. Cinnamon
supplementation positively and significantly affected
diastolic blood pressure and significantly affected systolic blood pressure
when taken for at least 8 weeks. (2) Quite a few reports
have stated that cinnamon reduced blood pressure. A recent
meta-analysis of 9 randomized clinical trials reported that cinnamon
supplementation can boost blood pressure by a modest degree
overall. Significant reductions in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure reduced
when taking 2 grams or more a day of cinnamon for at least 8
weeks. (3) That is news worth giving to our
Auburn chiropractic patients.
DIABETES TYPE II
Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. cares for many patients
who also have diabetes type II. Diabetes
mellitus is a disease encompassing a variety of
different issues related to insulin resistance or low
production of it by the pancreas. This all results in lifelong damage to organs throughout a lifetime.
Management is complex. Herbs are frequently added to the
management. Cinnamon is cited as a
favorable choice for diabetic hypertensive patients. (4) A
survey of the use of complementary alternative medicine by diabetic patients found
that many use bitter apple, ginger, fenugreek, garlic and cinnamon. 66.1% used
cinnamon. (5) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. wants to know what our
chiropractic patients are using and if they find benefit.
