Cinnamon gives this tea a hint of sweetness without adding any sugar! Used as an ingredient throughout history, cinnamon was once regarded as a gift fit for kings and is well known for its blood-sugar lowering properties. Cinnamon does this by working with digestive enzymes to slow the breakdown of carbohydrates after a meal, decreasing the amount of glucose that enters the bloodstream and mimicking insulin which can have a great effect on the amount of glucose uptake by your cells.
Gymnema has been shown to help fight sugar cravings and lower high blood sugar levels. The plant can also play a beneficial role in diabetes treatment, as it has been shown to stimulate insulin secretion and the regeneration of pancreas islet cells — both of which can help lower blood sugar. In addition, Gymnema may fight inflammation, aid weight loss and lower “bad” LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
Fenugreek really rounds out the delicious flavor of this tea! A study published in the International Journal For Vitamin and Nutrition Research, found that a daily dose of fenugreek seeds soaked in hot water can help manage blood sugar levels. Fenugreek seeds contain fiber and help in slowing down the digestive process, further regulating the absorption of carbohydrates and sugar. Fenugreek also helps by improving the way your body uses sugar and may also reduce cholesterol levels, lower inflammation, and help with appetite control.
