Hey Everyone,
Anyone ever tried this before? I read that a cup of Cinnamon and honey tea in the morning and and night can help you shed up to 5 additional pounds in a week without changing anything in your routine.
I was thinking about trying it out for a week and see?
The article said boil water and then add 2 tbls of ground cinnamon or 2 cinnamon sticks into the water, strain, then add one tablespoon of honey and drink morning and night.
Thoughts?

I read about this one online too. Would like to hear some feedback on it myself. I did read for the best results you need Raw Honey and the better grade of cinnamon. I was going to give it a try but haven't been able to locate the raw honey.0

Well... Let us know how it works for you! 5lbs a week is a lot to ask from cinnamon and tea but you won't know unless you try! Good luck!0

While I have no doubt that cinnamon and honey can have health benefits, unless they help you burn an extra 17,500 calories per week, then they won't be causing you to drop an extra five pounds! Unless you're talking water weight, to lose weight you have to burn calories. Some foods may help stir-up your metabolism, but that is a HUGE change you're talking about. I think it's likely an exaggeration of what this tea can do.0 -
Anything that boasts a loss of "up to five pounds" in a week that doesn't require buying onesies and diapers is suspect.
Here's the deal on cinnamon:
1. Helps to stabilize glucose levels.
2. Raises metabolism (slightly and temporarily).
3. Curbs appetite.
All of these things are good in helping with weight loss, but you can't drink this tea twice a day, live on burgers and fries, sit and do nothing and expect weight loss (we all wish). :-D0 -

Don't forget to also add that it does help with lowering cholesterol too.
Back on topic though - always be suspiscious of *anything* that proposes miracle weight loss! If you do try it (and it sounds interesting enough to try - I love honey and cinnamon!), just be prepared for the worst and hope for the best!0 -
Just an FYI, you will not see immediate results by drinking this tea or taking cinnamon supplements. Some people do these things expecting to see results asap, but herbs and natural supplements can take up to months to start working.0

Well....while delicious, I don't think this is accurate. I drink cinnamon and honey tea regularly. I WISH it were true, though...heh.0
