4. Lowers Blood Sugar

Not only do cinnamon and honey help diabetics in the incident of foot ulcers, but they could also help prevent diabetes and control pre-diabetics. In diabetic patients, cinnamon is said to decrease blood sugar (especially fasting blood sugar) as well as increase insulin sensitivity.

While honey isn’t as beneficial to diabetics, it can be used as an alternative to sugar in small doses. It would be silly to think that honey and cinnamon could cure or control diabetes entirely on their own. But they are extremely beneficial when combined with a proper diet and exercise regimen.
