Recently I stumbled upon some “interesting” article published in a popular articles network that criticizes Honey and Cinnamon for Weight Loss in a way that is so lame that I got really pissed. Obviously the article’s author has never read about the hundreds of people worldwide, who have lost pounds with the Honey and Cinnamon Drink and for those athletes who keep themselves in great shape using the Honey and The Hibernation Diet by Mike McInnes.
The author obviously hasn’t read anything from Mike McInnes – the creator of the Honey and The Hibernation Diet – who is explaining very thoroughly the exact effect of honey over human body: “Honey, prior to bed, optimizes liver glycogen plenitude via fructose and glucose uptake, honey activates sleep via insulin and melatonin, honey promotes optimal recovery (fat burning)…” so in fact honey optimizes liver glycogen plenitude, doesn’t rise it up to the sky like the article’s author claims.
Coumarin is a chemical compound contained in Cassia (Cinnamomum aromaticum – aka Chinese Cinnamon) and is known to cause liver and kidney damage in high concentrations. True Cinnamon (Cinnamomum zeylanicum – aka Ceylon Cinnamon) has negligible amounts of Coumarin, so no worries here folks as long as you use the True Cinnamon.
