First I love you menu….

I not not to eat carbs…every other day I’
ll have toast organic rye, gluten free sometimes I
cheat have two slices, also I eat kefir organic
potatoes twice a week, friend in olive oil with bell
pepers and mixed italian seasoning. my eggs are soft
boiled about five minutes and one a week friend in
olive oil with some fresh back that is smoked , we
called it gypsy speck…..

Every day I have a fresh fruit smoothie, about three
glasses , and it consists of every major fruit in

season , usually always strawberries, bananas , juice
of pineapple (which I consider a great fruit for
nutrients) kiwi (another great fruit –great for
kidneys and liver_ etc….and Yes do the BS L
increases with this drink and after which I take from
six to 12 capsules of cinnamon,,,I really do feels the
benefits of the fruit far outweigh to increase of the
BSL , and , of course, that is if I can get the BSL
back down after taking the fruit drink, I make sure
that I take on average 15,000 ORAC antioxidants per
day and it mainly comes from the fruit
smoothie….other Ideas that I use are , prunes, f dry
figs, dates and sunflower seeds, probably sunflower
seeds are the best thing I trake for nutrients…

My lunches and dinners vary meat loaf, to beef stir
fry, chicken and pork , I probably do eat to much meat
but …….

After 8pm I try not to munch, if I do its usually
walnuts, I do have a problem with diet pepsi, I’m
addicted to it….

Put it all together, no meds just cassia cinnamon,
however I am now testing myself with guava, it looks
promising….

Their are many different cassia cinnamons and all are the common variety of cinnamon. Depending on what country their are grown in, will determine the strength. From what I have learned, Australian cassia cinnamon is the weakest, (This is the one I used as I live here in Australia) Saigon cassia cinnamon is the strongest. Someday in the future I'll test them all..... I am a type II and I take six OO capsules each time I use them, usually three times a day, also my diet is <!--more--> free from grains (wheat rye oats barley and including corn and rice) and anything from the potato family....if and when I cheat on my diet ie....toast for breakfast or a beatuful italian dinner with friends, I would have to take six capsules wait another w or 3 hours and take another six to get my sugar down to normal 90/120 or so.... all the best Michael JP,

I used capsules for the pectin so that may be the problem why their was no affect.....So far for myself the best is cassia cinnamon, ie...if my BSL gets to 200 after eating , I use the Cinnamon and usually within two to three hours I get the BSL down to 120....
