Question of the Week | April 14, 2020

JL has prediabetes and wants to know if adding cinnamon to their diet will prevent them from getting type 2 diabetes.

What is the Diabetes Ed Specialist’s best response?

  1. Adding cinnamon to your meal plan lowers your risk of diabetes.
  2. The American Diabetes Association does not recommend nutritional supplements.
  3. It is better to take the cinnamon capsules, so you get a standardized dose.
  4. Many people find that cinnamon makes healthy foods taste better.
