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! Wilson Family Chiropractic reports on a few
of the latest papers regarding this simple
ingredient, cinnamon.
HELP FOR Millville MIGRAINE
Cinnamon’s
anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties were put to the
test for migraine management. Migraine, the most common primary headache
type, has higher levels of inflammation. Compared to a control treatment,
cinnamon significantly reduced levels of inflammatory agents,
interleukin-6 and nitric oxide. Cinnamon also decreased
the frequency, severity and duration of migraine attacks.
Cinnamon eased migraine in this study! As far as cinnamon goes, it’s safe. (1) Wilson Family Chiropractic gladly presents
research-based safe alternatives to try for health.
BLOOD PRESSURE
Blood pressure is a common health condition
for many Millville folks. Cinnamon
supplementation favorably 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 new
meta-analysis of 9 randomized clinical trials reported that cinnamon
supplementation can boost blood pressure by a modest degree
overall. Significant reductions in both diastolic
and systolic blood pressure reduced
when using 2 grams or more a day of cinnamon for at least eight
weeks. (3) That’s news worth sharing with our
Millville chiropractic patients.
DIABETES TYPE II
Wilson Family Chiropractic takes care of many patients
who also are diagnosed with diabetes type II. Diabetes
mellitus is a disease involving a variety of
different issues related to 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 revealed
that many use bitter apple, ginger, fenugreek, garlic and cinnamon. 66.1% consumed
cinnamon. (5) Wilson Family Chiropractic wants to know what our
chiropractic patients are using and if they find benefit.
