Hi Poutine, thanks for sending the link, it's interesting, -had been awhile since I'd read anything about the cinnamon helping type 2 diabetes. Good to know of the other benefits that ground cinnamon offers also. And good to be warned about the effects it can have on insulin etc, altho in my...

Hi Corey 123, just wanted to mention, that I was told by a GP that diabetes will never go away, "once you have it, you will always have it". However, as you mentioned, in some cases, (as in mine), if you eat properly and get exercise, it can be managed. best wishes, Alandra
