Cinnamon. It’s a tasty way to help
several health issues: migraine, blood pressure,
diabetes mellitus. Chiropractic is all about health! Nutritional approaches to
various ailments enhance the body’s capability
to take care of itself. The key is figuring out which ones are
best for what! Hollstrom & Associates Inc reports on some
of the recent papers about this simple
ingredient, cinnamon.
HELP FOR Largo 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 attacks.
Cinnamon helped migraine in this study! Additionally,
cinnamon is a safe supplement. (1) Hollstrom & Associates Inc happily presents
research-based safe options to try for health.
BLOOD PRESSURE
Blood pressure is a common health condition
for many Largo 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 reports
have reported that cinnamon reduced blood pressure. A recent
meta-analysis of 9 randomized clinical trials reported that cinnamon
supplementation can boost 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
Largo chiropractic patients.
DIABETES TYPE II
Hollstrom & Associates Inc 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 results in lifelong damage to organs throughout a lifetime.
Management is complex. Herbs are frequently included in the
management. Cinnamon is mentioned as an advantageous 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% consumed
cinnamon. (5) Hollstrom & Associates Inc wants to know what our
chiropractic patients are taking and if they find benefit.
