HELP FOR West Palm Beach MIGRAINE
Cinnamon’s
anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties were tested for migraine management. Migraine, the most common primary headache
type, has increased levels of inflammation. Compared to a control treatment,
cinnamon significantly decreased levels of inflammatory agents,
interleukin-6 and nitric oxide. Cinnamon also lessened
the frequency, severity and duration of migraine episodes.
Cinnamon helped migraine in this study! Plus,
cinnamon is a safe supplement. (1) Chiropractic Care happily shares
research-based safe options to try for health.
BLOOD PRESSURE
Blood pressure is a familiar health issue
for many West Palm Beach folks. Supplementing with cinnamon favorably and significantly affected
diastolic blood pressure and when taken for more than 8 weeks significantly
affected systolic blood pressure. (2) Several reports
have stated that cinnamon reduced blood pressure. A new
meta-analysis of 9 randomized clinical trials reported that cinnamon
supplementation can boost blood pressure by a modest degree
overall. Significant reductions in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure reduced
when using 2 grams or more a day of cinnamon for at least 8
weeks. (3) That’s news worth sharing with our
West Palm Beach chiropractic patients.
DIABETES TYPE II
Chiropractic Care takes care of many patients
who also are dealing with diabetes type II. Diabetes
mellitus is a disease encompassing many
different issues associated with insulin resistance or low
production of it by the pancreas. This all gives rise to lifelong damage to organs over a lifetime.
Management is complex. Herbs are frequently added to the
management. Cinnamon is mentioned as an advantageous choice for diabetic hypertensive patients. (4) A
survey of the use of complementary alternative medicine by diabetic patients revealed
that many use bitter apple, ginger, fenugreek, garlic and cinnamon. 66.1% used
cinnamon. (5) Chiropractic Care wants to know what our
chiropractic patients are taking and if they find benefit.
