I've been taking cinnamon (I simply sprinkle it over food or drink at each meal) for 3 weeks and I am already feeling a difference. First, I lost 2 pounds without any real effort (I've been trying to lose some weight for weeks without succeeding) since I haven't been getting hungry in the same way as I used too. Also, although I have to wait a couple of days more to find out, but it seems like I am going to ovulate earlier in my cycle (my last two cycles were like 45-52 days long, with very late ovulation and light bleeding before). I also have been taking one capsule of vitex daily since 1.5 weeks (400mg).
So, I definitely think it's worth testing cinnamon. Only side effect I am feeling is lower blood pressure (I already have rather low blood pressure normally), but I can live with that if it helps me with my PCOS (my doc here in Europe refused to prescribe me metformin, he wants to wait and see, don't know for what really).
