Cinnamon
Cinnamon contains antioxidants and natural plant compounds that may:
- Add flavor without sugar
- Provide antioxidant activity
- Be part of a healthy diet
Some studies suggest cinnamon may have modest effects on blood sugar in certain people, but it is not a treatment for diabetes or cancer.
Aloe Vera
The clear gel inside aloe vera leaves contains water, vitamins, and plant compounds.
Food-grade aloe vera gel is sometimes used in drinks, but it has not been proven to prevent cancer or restore eyesight.
Important: Only use products specifically prepared for consumption. The yellow latex just beneath the leaf skin can cause severe diarrhea and may be unsafe in large amounts.
