Agriculture found that cinnamon made the body's cells more responsive
to insulin, which in turn, helps to control the level of sugar or
glucose in the blood.
- In studies, blood sugar levels started rising as soon as cinnamon was stopped, emphasizing the importance of daily consumption.
- New research shows that ground cinnamon may also reduce the bad
LDL-cholesterol, total cholesterol and triglycerides in type 2

Watkins Linimax: Alternative to Vioxx
On Thursday, September 30, 2004, Merck & Company Pharmaceuticals announced a worldwide recall of Vioxx, a top-selling arthritis and pain medication drug. This recall was based on evidence that showed an increased risk of heart attack and stroke after 18 months of use. Millions of people take either Vioxx or a similar drug, Celebrex, for relief of arthritis pain. Although there is no recall on Celebrex at this time, its similarity to Vioxx has raised concerns among health professionals and patients.
Watkins Linimax
Watkins Linimax® contains glucosamie. For over 25 years, physicians around the world have prescribed glucosamine for joint discomfort.
Sales of Vioxx worldwide were $2.5 billion in 2003, and those who depended on Vioxx for pain relief will now be looking for an alternative, and you can help! Watkins Linimax (#02266 US / #32116 CDN) contains glucosamine, a natural compound found in the body that stimulates the production of cartilage and inhibits its breakdown, resulting in less joint discomfort and swelling, and greater movement and joint flexibility. For over 25 years, physicians around the world have prescribed glucosamine for joint discomfort for one simple reason: People who take it feel better, and experience no side effects. Watkins Linimax contains the purest form of glucosamine, along with other natural soothing and protective ingredients, including antioxidants from whole grape extract, along with ginger, boswellia and curcumin, shown to reduce the body's production of pain-causing compounds.*
For safe and effective relief, Watkins has the answer, in Linimax!

Cinnamon shown to lower blood sugar, fats and cholesterol

Cinnamon shown to lower blood sugar, fats and cholesterol |

|
10-21-2004 
Recent studies have shown that just 1/4 tsp of cinnamon every day may
help to lower blood sugar, fats and cholesterol by up to 30 percent!
Researchers suggest it may also stave off the onset of type 2 diabetes
in those at risk.
Watkins Purest Ground Cinnamon contains a high
amount of essential oils for optimum flavor, aroma and health benefits!
Try some every day on cereal, oatmeal, toast, apples and savory dishes.
Place in coffee grounds before brewing for rich flavor and aroma.
The following is a summary of this ground-breaking study published in the journal Diabetes Care, December 2003:
A Spoonful of Cinnamon Helps Treat Diabetesby Alison McCook, Dec 11, 2003.
NEW
YORK (Reuters Health) - People with diabetes can help keep their bodies
healthy by simply adding a dash of spice to their diet, new research
reports.
In a study, diabetics who incorporated one gram --
equivalent to less than one-quarter teaspoon -- of cinnamon per day for
40 days into their normal diets experienced a decrease in levels of
blood sugar, cholesterol and blood fats.
And for people with diabetes, the less of those substances in the body, the better.
Type
2 diabetes arises when the body loses sensitivity to insulin, a hormone
that shuttles the sugars from food into body cells to be used for
energy. As a result, the amount of sugar, or glucose, in the blood
remains high, leading to fatigue and blurred vision. Over the long
term, excess blood glucose can increase the risk of heart disease,
kidney failure and blindness.
The current findings suggest that
a small amount of cinnamon can help protect diabetics from these and
other potential complications of their condition, study author Dr.
Richard A. Anderson of the Beltsville Human Nutrition Research Center
in Maryland told Reuters Health.
Diabetics could add a dash of
cinnamon to their morning servings of coffee, orange juice or cereal,
Anderson noted. "You can also make a cinnamon tea by simply boiling
water with stick cinnamon," he suggested.
Anderson noted that cinnamon may also help stave off the onset of type 2 diabetes in people at risk of the condition.
During
the study, Anderson and his colleagues asked 60 people with type 2
diabetes to consume 1, 3, or 6 grams of cinnamon each day for 40 days,
or the equivalent amount of wheat flour, as a placebo.
Reporting in the journal Diabetes Care,
Anderson and his team found that all cinnamon-takers experienced a drop
in blood levels of glucose, fats and cholesterol by up to 30 percent.
No change was seen in the people taking placebo.
Anderson
explained that cinnamon contains compounds that help make insulin more
efficient, improving the hormone's ability to bring glucose to the
cells that need it.
As an added bonus, cinnamon contains
virtually no calories, Anderson said, allowing diabetics to add zest to
their meals without adding to their waistlines.
Previous
research has shown that cinnamon appears to help fat cells recognize
and respond to insulin. In recent studies, the spice increased glucose
metabolism by about 20 times.
