ingredient, cinnamon.
HELP FOR Plainville 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 lessened
the frequency, severity and duration of migraine episodes.
Cinnamon eased migraine in this study! As far as cinnamon goes, it’s safe. (1) Layden Chiropractic gladly shares
research-based safe options to try for health.
BLOOD PRESSURE
Blood pressure is a common health issue
for many Plainville folks. Supplementing with cinnamon favorably and significantly affected
diastolic blood pressure and when taken for more than 8 weeks significantly
affected systolic blood pressure. (2) Several reports
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 lessened
when taking 2 grams or more a day of cinnamon for at least eight
weeks. (3) That is news worth giving to our
Plainville chiropractic patients.
DIABETES TYPE II
Layden Chiropractic takes care of many patients
who also are dealing with diabetes type II. Diabetes
mellitus is a disease involving 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 revealed
that many use bitter apple, ginger, fenugreek, garlic and cinnamon. 66.1% used
cinnamon. (5) Layden Chiropractic requests to know what our
chiropractic patients are using and if they find benefit.
