From: Santosh Helekar [mailto:[email protected]] <<...Regarding cinnamon and other untested alternative and quack nostrums, the Mayo Clinic website in my previous post in this thread does not recommend that they be used as an adjunct therapy. Please see the relevant quote below:
"Numerous substances have been shown in some studies to improve insulin sensitivity, yet other studies have failed to find any benefit for blood sugar control or in lowering A1C levels. Because of the conflicting findings, no alternative therapies are currently recommended for diabetes control." ....The Mayo Clinic **There are patients who have used successfully, to some extent (as "adjunct therapy", not a total cure), some ayurvedic preparations, since there is no 'allopathic' cure for diabetes. This information can be sent to Mayo Clinic so as to change their Website. Thanks! Regards.
