When I first introduced my Sweet Potato Pie recipe a lot of people thought I was crazy - “you want me to juice a potato?” Now it has become one of my signature recipes with positive feedback from across the globe! This new recipe is a power house of nutrition, with a delicious sweet flavour. The addition of cinnamon makes it taste amazing, but that’s not all it does.
Cinnamon may help improve how your body uses insulin.
A review published in 2008 concluded that some people with Type 2 diabetes have shown improved insulin sensitivity, lower fasting blood glucose levels and blood pressure and increased lean body mass by taking cinnamon extracts. Insulin also plays a key role in how your body uses stored fat.
