Sweet Deal With Cinnamon

Studies have shown that cinnamon can help weight loss goals with a scoop every day. That's a sweet deal if you ask me. Cinnamon is rich in fiber, calcium, magnesium, & iron. It may also help avoid the spread of cancer cells! It can lower the cravings for sweet foods. It has an effect on insulin levels on the body. Cinnamon delays the time that food passes through the intestines to the stomach, making you feel fuller through out the day. It can also help pass on carbohydrates more efficiently. Cinnamon has more an effect on the abdominal fat more than any other part of the body. So add it to your coffee, your tea, or sprinkle it on top of anything you eat but keep it minimal. There are also cinnamon capsules available for easy consumption. Have a good day!

Juicy Water

I noticed yesterday that ever since I started drinking water, I have stopped munching on sweets. It can be feeding your depression even more. Take note guys, people eat snacks when bored. It can also be when they are feeling a bit sad, or just because the food is "right there" & "I don't want to let it go to waste". Sugar seriously clutters your body's ability to support itself! To keep it short & sweet- diabetes & body fat gain. I personally know that it's VERY difficult to stop eating sugars all at once since it has been compared to quitting highly addictive drugs! Incredible! I STRUGGLED the first day without sweets. The cravings are so serious that you'll probably start making ANY excuse to eat unless you have some sort of self-control (think meditation). Luckily, water can help you get used to healthier things in the long run. Check out my other posts for helpful tips!

You want some. I could tell.
