Does Eating Cinnamon Help You Lose Weight??
I read this somewhere...can't remember where and I bought cinnamon pills like vitamins at the cvs.
The pills look like this:
Here's what fitday.com has to say about the benefits of cinnamon and weight loss; mainly that it helps with tummy fat which I found interesting:
Cinnamon and Weight Loss
Cinnamon has a regulatory effect on blood sugar levels and simultaneously increases insulin levels in the body. It imitates the biological activity of insulin and increases the metabolism of glucose. Since high blood sugar levels can lead to increased storage of fat by the body, cinnamon helps prevent this increased storage of fat and enables you to lose weight. In addition, it influences the manner in which sugar is metabolized by the body and prevents the transformation of the metabolized sugar into fat. Cinnamon also delays the passing of food from the stomach into the intestine. Hence, you feel satisfied for a longer time and eat less. This helps you lose weight. Cinnamon also helps the body to process carbohydrates more efficiently and this assists you in losing a few pounds. Studies show that abdominal fat is more sensitive to the effects of cinnamon than fat from other parts of the body.
On the Exercise front I am doing 20 min. of cardio and 30 minutes of circuit training. I do not like it, I do it to be healthier. I'm hoping I get used to going more often bleh.
