I have borderline high blood pressure and my doctor had some diet related recommendations including trying “true cinnamon” as a supplement before considering something like lisinapro. Having read horror stories about cinnamon supplements labeled as “Ceylon” actually including cassia cinnamon which can apparently cause liver damage when taken in the dosage most commonly recommended (between 1g-2g per day). Even worse, some include other fillers and who knows what else.<br /><br />So I was a bit wary, but the company behind this product appears to be U.S. based (Utah) and sells a whole line of other non-supplement spices for cooking. It may be foolish, but this helped alleviate my concern about the actual product I would be putting into my body. Especially since the Ingredients are just cinnamon and the cellulose for the case.<br /><br />The pills themselves seem good, there is a strong cinnamon smell when you open the package. As far as I can tell, this is the real deal. I will be using this in the recommended 4 pills per day dose for 6 months until my next check-up. I am hoping to see my borderline HBP lower by 3-4 of points (that’s all I need to be back in the normal range).

On the left is my previous purchase if you notice the right one has some of the seal left on its lip but the previous one was not sealed when i open it, it was just sealed on its cover when i opened it.

Have been taking cinnamon for years and my doctor says I have the lowest a1c he's seen in a patient with type 2 diabetes.

label no longer states "lowers blood sugar"<br />dosage went from 5 capsules per day down to 2?<br />is this the same product???

I have been using this product for about a year. My sugar stays stable and within limits. Thank you for a great product.

Keeps me from craving carbs and helps me from developing diabetes.
