for using cinnamon to control blood sugar- what is the recommended measurement? how strong an effect?

I am type 1 diabetic.

I am curious about the so-called effect of cinnamon upon my body. has there been any research into body size and recommended dose and type of cinnamon. What species exactly has an effect and what amount would a doctor consider to a persons height, body weight? Is there a site with a scale of this research or is this pure hearsay that nobody can support?

Alternative medicinal experts prove it with numbers, please.

Cinnamon probably won’t help a type one much unless you have insulin resistance. The effect is like anything else…. Synergistic, if combined with a complete package including healthy diet and exercise routine. All it does, for diabetics, is help the insulin work better. It does help lower cholesterol and triglycerides as well. I’ve been using over the counter (unknown species) cinnamon on my cereal (usually oat based with blueberries) for about a year now. A half teaspoon a day is the recommended amount regardless of your size. Swanson vitamins has a product which is supposed to have the most potent form of it. They call it cinnulin or something like that.

You want numbers, go to the USDA website or NIH website and search there. Or you can go to my website and view my recent bloodtest where I scored a 5.8 on my A1C test. My doc wants it down to 5.2, so I’m cutting back on the carbs. Why are you all concerned about it? Even if it doesn’t help the BG, it will help any cholesterol and triglyceride issues. At the very least, it tastes good. I don’t understand your concern. Just do it and find out for yourself whether it’s right for you or not.

Why would I get a high blood sugar reading after exercise?

I’m asking this for both myself and my wife actually. We’re both Type 2, although mine is more controlled, with readings between 90-125 on average. We’ve both recently started individual exercise programs, and she’s frustrated with her blood sugar. I wasn’t with mine until this morning. I woke up, went to the gym right away, worked out for 90 minutes, had plenty of water, and my blood sugar read 126. (fasting).

Can anyone point to any information on the web about this? By the way, my morning blood sugars have been pretty decent for the last week, hovering between 100-120, so, this higher reading was surprising, especially after a decent workout. I’m trying to get information that’s informative for my wife as well. So links specific to this topic would be great. Thanks!
Edited to add: currently, our Type 2 diabetes is controlled by diet and exercise alone. As of today, neither one of us is on metformin (the medication we’ve been prescribed in the past).

Both LapisLauzli are Arkie mom are correct.

Exercise usually helps lower your blood sugar. This is because insulin is more effective during exercise. Regular exercise increases the number of insulin receptors on your cells. The receptors are the places where insulin attaches to cells so sugar can pass into the cells. Having more receptors makes the body more sensitive to insulin. As a result, insulin works more efficiently. This is how you are controlling your Diabetes with exercise (and diet) alone.
Sometimes blood sugars go up with exercise. Especially after strenous exercise. This may happen because you are excited and are releasing a hormone called adrenaline. This is a normal response in people with or without diabetes. The adrenaline causes sugar to be released from stores in the muscle and liver and raises the blood sugar for awhile. This usually happens in the first hour of exercise.

Wait a little longer (20-30 mins) to test. You should should notice a significant difference. Since you are not on meds I will not caution you about going too low after exercise (it has happened to me).

I have type 2 diabeties and arthritus , can pain medications affect my blood sugar control?

almost everything you do affects your blood sugar. You must check your blood sugar 3 or more times each day without fail. You must keep blood sugar between 80 and 115 points to stay healthy.

In any situation where you change diet, physical activity, or medications you will need to watch your blood sugar very closely and correct your diabetes meds and diet accordingly to compensate.

By the way. I am diet controlled and do not use medications. I eat 4 or 5 small meals daily, and I check my blood sugar before I eat, not after. If sugar is high (anything over 120), I delay my meal and drink water until it gets below 110, then I munch out.

I don’t understand why they recommend type II diebetics check blood sugar 1.5 hours after a meal. To me that’s like throwing gasoline on your car, striking a match, and then saying "okay I’ll come back in 1.5 hours to see if any thing is damaged." . Far better off to not throw the gas or light the match.

You may not be able to change the effect meds have on your blood sugar, but you can compensate through modification of diet and activity.

I hope this helps.

What is a good diet when you have a diabetes (high blood sugar)?

I just got news that I have diabetes. I do not have really high blood sugar when I have to use insulin, but the doctor said I definitely need to go on a diet. Would you be kind to advise me on a good diet, please?

It is important that you talk with your physician or dietician when designing you meal plan, coz the dietary needs of individuals may vary. So it’s better to get professional advice. The followings are a general guideline.

•Lower the fat intake, especially saturated fat.

•Limit the use of refined sugar

•Select carbohydrates with low glycemic index (GI) value. Low glycemic value means they increase our blood sugar level slowly, not very dramatically, which is important in diabetes. Carbohydrates rich in fiber are examples for these: like whole grain bread, rice and grains still with the seed cover.
•Eat regular small servings, spreading the daily portion of carbohydrate throughout each meal.

•Avoid over-consumption of highly processed food; you know food like fast food, instant noodles, white bread etc.

•Eat three to five servings of vegetables daily. But don’t eat too much starchy vegetables like potato, yams. Choose beans, cucumber, cabbage, green leafy vegies etc.

•Fruits can be taken in moderation. Avoid too much of sugary fruits though.

•Limit alcohol consumption. Alcohol can cause two special problems. One is that it contains lots of energy that may not have been included into your meal plan. Also alcohol may impair your judgment about what food is good for you and what is bad.

It is important that you take regular moderate exercises. Exercises help you manage diabetes properly. But speak with your physician first, before you start an exercise plan. Get his advice on which exercise suits you and in which intensity and frequency.

Read lots of articles from good sources and be empowered about your condition. Don’t panic. It a condition that can be properly managed. It is important that you maintain a positive attitude. It is possible to have diabetes and lead a normal healthy happy life, if you follow healthy life habits, regarding food, exercises, timely medical check ups etc.

I’ll include two links for you to start with.

my husband is in control of his blood sugar?

my husband is in control of his blood sugar. checks it 3 times a day. he has been to numerous dr.’s for his foot neuropothy and no one can find an answer for the pain. they have tried different meds on him and the lyrica worked for about 2-3 months. now the pain is back. that is why i asked if he could take he lyrica 3 times a day instead of 2 times a day at 75 mg a pill
a pill?

I’ll say this again:

Please do not request advice about drug choice, dosing, or application on YA. It’s not a wise move on your part and it’s irresponsible of Yahoo to allow questions like this to be posted. Consult with your doctor or pharmacist.

It’s not normal to have high blood sugar before eating anything for breakfast is it?

I just went to the chiropractor this morning and they took some kind of a blood sugar screen on me. They said I had too much sugar in my system. I am pregnant and I was going to get do the test for gestational diabetes next week but now I am pretty sure that I have it. Because that is what they do for the test, right? Don’t they have you fast for 3 hours or something? So my blood sugar shouldn’t have been high from the previous night, right?

Hi Joy,

Congratulations on your pregnancy! You didn’t say how far along you are, but of course being pregnant causes a lot of changes – hormonal as well as necessary weight gain. If you didn’t have diabetes before, you might have gestational diabetes. High blood sugar before breakfast is a fair indicator.

If you have gestational diabetes, it’s okay. You’ll just have to be more careful with what you eat and test your blood sugars until the baby is born. Your diabetes should go away after that.

I’d strongly advise you to keep your weight down when you’re not pregnant. Once you have gestational diabetes your risk goes up for developing type 2 later in life. Keep the weight down and reduce that risk.

There’s a free report on diabetes available at the website below.

Hoping all goes well with you and your baby!

How to control blood sugar and cholesterol at a same time,thru diet and medicine?

Limit your intake of all carbohydrates and most fats. Ask your doctor if he/she can prescribe an oral hypoglycemic and a medicine for hyperlipidemia. Limiting carb intake has enabled me to keep my blood sugar in the normal range, i.e. eliminating sugar, starches such as pasta, bread, and rice. I take Zocor and limit my intake of fat to get my cholesterol levels into a normal range.

Effectiveness of Adderall and High Blood Sugar?

I’ve been on Adderall for 3 months and I’ve notices a decline in its efficiency. I’ve been drinking a lot of coke and mountain dew this past week. Could these high blood sugar levels decrease efficiency of the Adderall?

It’s probably the caffeine.
