The search for herbs to cure diabetes is on! I know cinnamon has been found to increase the conversion of glucose into energy and also blocks out free radicals. This means it retards diabetic complications. In fact, research in India indicates that the effects of this herb in controlling blood sugar levels are astonishing. About 70% of the individuals reported positive results.
