Picture of Cinnamon.

Everyone knows this spice! On its own, boy is it tough to consume. Have you ever seen that challenge? Well I tried it at the behest of my wife. I don’t advise it even if you are as large as I am.

Two major types of cinnamon are:

  • Cassia- If you live in the States, this is probs what you are using. Mostly grown in Asia.
  • Ceylon or “True” Cinnamon- Used more often in other countries outside the US.

Health Benefits

Can help with diabetes, lower blood sugar, lower cholesterol, and even IBS. Studies show that it can help with Heart disease, Alzheimer’s, cancer, HIV, infection, tooth decay, and even allergies.

If you are looking for extra umph on an ailment, you may try adding cinnamon. Be careful not to eat too much!

I hope this has been informative. Have a Blessed day!

Pre-gym meal

So today for the gym im doing a thing. To backup a bit, my diet sucks. I have a bad problem of eating too much, just like the majority of America. My only saving grace is that i have a super effective and taxing workout ethic. It also doesn’t hurt that my job is very stressful on my body. So, today im going to try something. I will eat these little tuna packets before and after my workout. They are very filling and packed with protein. Protein is not essential pre-workout, but post-workout protein is key. These tuna packet come in many flavors and are really only high in Sodium. So in closing, if you need a quick snack packed with protein for about a dollar, these are great!

Let me know what your favorite/essential snacks are that yall eat to be just that much healthier!! Have a blessed day yall!!!
