I always thought everyone on here was kidding about the cinnamon cures....

After 10 years of being Type 1, it finally happened. I was in the grocery store yesterday and was wearing my short sleeve shirt and a nice older gentlemen approached me and politely asked what the sensor was on my arm. I explained to him that I was diabetic and it sends data to my phone 24/7 to help manage insulin dosages, etc.

He then explains he is also diabetic and got his A1C down from 7.7 to 5.5 using cinnamon extract and coconut oil.

I told him I would head right over to the spice aisle and give it a shot, I think I am going to put back on the long sleeves during summer.
