What Is Cinnulin PF?

Cinnulin PF is a patented supplement containing Cinnamomum burmannii extract. Formulated exclusively by Integrtiy Nutraceuticals company, Cinnulin PF reportedly helps the body use its insulin supply more effectively, ensuring healthy glucose metabolism. The supplement is used to help treat diabetes.

  1. Importance of Insulin and Glucose

    • Without insulin, glucose can't get into the cells to be used as energy. Glucose provides immediate energy as you're eating, but much of it is stored for future use. A limited amount is stored in the liver but most of it goes into the body's fat cells. Insulin stimulates the transformation of excess glucose into fat cells.

    Diabetes

    • Diabetes leaves the patient's body unable to produce enough insuliin, which inhibits the transfer of energy from the blood stream into cells.

    Cinnamon's Effects

    • Traditionally, cinnamon has been used to treat gastrointestinal ailments, but medical research has proven that cinnamon helps stabilize blood sugar levels for optimum body functions, according to VitalHealthPartners.com. Cinnamon extract has positive effects on the body's insulin and glucose functions. It increases glucose uptake and stimulates the insulin receptors of the body's cells. By triggering the proper functioning of insulin, cinnamon also stimulates proper fat metabolism to improve glucose and blood lipid functionality. Overall, cinnamon can be used to help maintain a healthy level of blood sugar. It is important, however, that the extraction process be done properly, since there are parts of cinnamon bark that are not useful and can even be harmful.

    Cinnulin PF's Cinnamon Extraction

    • Cinnulin PF is unique in that the supplement's cinnamon ingredient is acquired through an extraction process that leaves out the potentially harmful ingredients of cinnamon bark. This patented method extracts the valuable water-soluble polymers from Indonesian cinnamon plants, leaving behind the cinnamon bark's fat-soluble compounds, which are harmful in high quantities. This increases the potency of the cinnamon extract so that it is highly effective, as well as safe.

    Benefits of Cinnulin PF

    • Cinnulin PF's most significant benefit is that it helps regulate healthy blood sugar levels, hence its use in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. It also helps reduce high cholesterol levels. Because Cinnulin PF is a natural substance, it can be used safely with other medications.

      Body fat reduction and subsequent weight loss have been reported as a beneficial result of Cinnulin PF, though there is no solid research to support that the supplement indeed causes weight loss. It does, however, increase lean muscle tissue, according to VitalHealthPartners.com.

    USDA

    • A study performed at the Beltsville USDA Human Nutrition Research Center suggested that cinnamon's water-soluble polyphenol polymers does support healthy glucose metabolism
