Cinnamon. It is a tasty way to address
several health issues: migraine, blood pressure,
diabetes mellitus. Chiropractic is all about health! Nutritional approaches to
various ailments enhance the body’s ability
to take care of itself. The key is figuring out which ones are
best for what! Moses Chiropractic shares a few
of the recent papers concerning this simple
ingredient, cinnamon.
HELP FOR West Palm Beach MIGRAINE
The anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties of cinnamon were tested for migraine management. Migraine, the most common primary headache
type, has increased levels of inflammation. Compared to a control treatment,
cinnamon significantly reduced levels of inflammatory agents,
interleukin-6 and nitric oxide. Cinnamon also decreased
the frequency, severity and duration of migraine episodes.
Cinnamon helped migraine in this study! As far as cinnamon goes, it’s safe. (1) Moses Chiropractic happily presents
research-based safe alternatives to try for health.
BLOOD PRESSURE
Blood pressure is a common health issue
for many West Palm Beach folks. Supplementing with cinnamon positively and significantly affected
diastolic blood pressure and when taken for more than 8 weeks significantly
affected systolic blood pressure. (2) Several studies
have stated that cinnamon reduced blood pressure. A recent
meta-analysis of 9 randomized clinical trials reported that cinnamon
supplementation can improve blood pressure by a modest degree
overall. Significant reductions in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure decreased
when using 2 grams or more a day of cinnamon for at least eight
weeks. (3) That’s news worth giving to our
West Palm Beach chiropractic patients.
DIABETES TYPE II
Moses Chiropractic cares for many patients
who also have diabetes type II. Diabetes
mellitus is a disease involving many
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 stated as a positive choice for diabetic hypertensive patients. (4) A
survey of the use of complementary alternative medicine by diabetic patients revealed
that many use bitter apple, ginger, fenugreek, garlic and cinnamon. 66.1% used
cinnamon. (5) Moses Chiropractic wants to know what our
chiropractic patients are using and if they find benefit.
