Cinnamon. It’s 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 work for what! Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic describes some
of the latest papers about this simple
ingredient, cinnamon.
HELP FOR Montreal MIGRAINE
The anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties of cinnamon were tested for migraine management. Migraine, the most common primary headache
type, has higher levels of inflammation. Compared to a control option,
cinnamon significantly decreased 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) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic gladly presents
research-based safe alternatives to try for health.
BLOOD PRESSURE
Blood pressure is a familiar health issue
for many Montreal folks. Cinnamon
supplementation 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 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 sharing with our
Montreal chiropractic patients.
DIABETES TYPE II
Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic takes care of many patients
who also are dealing with diabetes type II. Diabetes
mellitus is a disease encompassing many
different issues associated with insulin resistance or low
production of it by the pancreas. This all gives rise to lifelong damage to organs over a lifetime.
Management is complex. Herbs are frequently added to the
management. Cinnamon is mentioned 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% consumed
cinnamon. (5) Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic requests to know what our
chiropractic patients are using and if they find benefit.
