A few days ago I started drinking cinnamon tea before bedtime. I use 1/2 tsp cinnamon in 8 ounces of water. My biggest problem is eating at night after dinner. The cinnamon has helped me not be so ravenously hungry. I don't eat at all after dinner now. Even during the day I'm not as hungry, so I'm eating less. I've bought the capsules but I think I'll save those for when I'm out and can't make the tea. I've lost 4 lbs already. I hope this continues to work for me.
Wow - I'm glad I came across this thread! I've been taking cinnamon for about 2 mths and my energy does seem a bit better. I've only been taking 150mg a day (that's what the bottle said to take). I'm almost out of these low dose ones and I think I'll try to find some that are higher dose for my next bottle. If not, I'd be taking 13 pills a day to get up to 2000mg a day!!!! Thanks for sharing all your expertise and experience!
I just started Cinnamon this week and am taking 1000 mg a day. I might up it in a week or two depending on my carb cravings. I ordered my cinnamon from puritan's pride online. It is buy one get 2 free and very low shipping. I am also starting Chromium Picolinate and flax seed oil this week. I hope they help regulate my IR and maybe help me get an AF visit.
I hope to see some of the good results you ladies are getting and maybe loss a few pounds or at least have energy to go workout.

I went out tonight and bought some 500mg cinnamon capsules. I plan on taking two per day, but I will also be taking evening primrose tabs with them. The evening primrose has kept cysts from forming on my jawline, and I'm afraid as to what these cinnamon capsules might do to my skin. Has anyone noticed a difference in their skin from taking the cinnamon capsules?

I just came across this thread and was wondering if you could answer a question for me. I take metformin 2000mg a day but was looking into taking cinnamon. Can i take both the meformin and cinnamon together or should i just take one. Thanks .

Yes I have noticed the cinnamon has lightened dark spots that were on my skin.

Narrated Anas: Allah's Apostle said, "Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or he is an oppressed one. People asked, "O Allah's Apostle! It is all right to help him if he is oppressed, but how should we help him if he is an oppressor?" The Prophet said, "By preventing him from oppressing others."

Well, you ladies have convinced me that I need to add Cinnamon to my pill shopping list. I read that you should not take it when pregnant - I am trying to conceive: does anyone know if this is not a good idea for my situation?

I don't know about ttc, but take a look at your other thread you posted earlier. I just added an article, which might make you re-think capsules...
