of the latest papers concerning this simple
ingredient, cinnamon.
HELP FOR Oxford MIGRAINE
Cinnamon’s
anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties 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 eased migraine in this study! Additionally,
cinnamon is a safe supplement. (1) Satterwhite Chiropractic happily presents
research-based safe alternatives to try for health.
BLOOD PRESSURE
Blood pressure is a familiar health issue
for many Oxford 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) Quite a few studies
have stated that cinnamon reduced blood pressure. A new
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 lessened
when using 2 grams or more a day of cinnamon for at least 8
weeks. (3) That’s news worth sharing with our
Oxford chiropractic patients.
DIABETES TYPE II
Satterwhite Chiropractic cares for many patients
who also are diagnosed with diabetes type II. Diabetes
mellitus is a disease involving a variety of
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 included in the
management. Cinnamon is cited as a positive 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) Satterwhite Chiropractic requests to know what our
chiropractic patients are taking and if they find benefit.
