Cinnamon: It's What's for Breakfast

I love cinnamon. 

I put it in all of my breakfast treats -oatmeal, cereal, milk, toast, yogurt, coffee, fruit, etc.

You should do the same, because it's so good for you!

Studies show that adding half of a teaspoon of cinnamon to your daily diet can lower LDL.

LDLs are Low-Density Lipoproteins, or as I've always been taught, the "Least-Desirable Lipoproteins."

Here are some other things that cinnamon will do for your body:

• Regulates blood sugar
• Has an anti-clotting affect on the blood
• A great source of manganese, fiber, iron, and calcium.
• Has the ability to stop the growth of bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites in the body
• Its scent boosts brain function
• Improves colon health
• Protects against heart disease
• Reduces proliferation of leukemia and lymphoma cancer cells
• It's proven to fight bad breath
• Home remedy to cure the common cold/respiratory problems
• Provides relief from menstrual cramping
• Reduces arthritis pain
• Effective for helping nausea, heart burn, indigestion, upset stomach, diarrhea (Yay, Pepto-Bismol! ..couldn't help but think of that song/commercial) 
• Natural food preserver
• Muscle and joint pain reliever

With all of these health benefits, why on Earth not add cinnamon to your diet?

I use McCormick's Cinnamon Grinder

By turning the lid, it grinds the flakes of cinnamon into teeny pieces.

 It gives my foods the freshest cinnamon flavor and aroma!
