Hai!!!
Just thought i would share a quick tip for those that don't necessarily like the taste of water. My husband is diabetic, and he was reading that cinnamon is REALLY good for lowering blood sugar- SOOO we started putting cinnamon sticks in pitchers of water!! usually 3 per pitcher. The first initial taste of the water is the same, as normal water, but the after taste is WONDERFUL!!!! ( not over powering) this has helped me to drink 8 glasses a day or more just thought i would share.

Does it need to be hot water or will cold water work to pull the flavor from the cinnamon?0

I just use it like the salt for a tequila shot, lick the back of your hand, pour some cinnamon on it, lick it, chug some water, repeat.

I also read that cinnamin is a fat burner. I put in in my oatmeal (old fashioned, not instant 0 sodium), on my wheat toast and also in my sugar free applesauce. I have some cinnamin sticks in cabinet from Christmas, will try the water thing. Thanks!0

I'll have to try that, I put cucumber & orange peel slices in my water, I bet orange peels & cinnamon would be tasty. I add cinnamon to a LOT: oatmeal, coffee, hot chocolate. Once I ran out of hot chocolate (the horror!!!) and discovered a tasty hot drink by sticking cinnamon sticks in a pot of milk with a tsp of vanilla and heating it...0 -
