Really? I mean I know cinnamon is good for you but I didn't know it was *that* good for you. I'll have to try it. I don't want to do metformin again, I've been off for a year!

After I read the entry in the PCOS community I looked it up on the web and apparently it has the same effects on Insulin Resistance as Metformin. I really don't expect it to be quite as good but anything is better than nothing! I haven't been on Metformin since I was 12 weeks pregnant with Hannah! My doctors pretty much have only helped out my PCOS when I'm looking to get pregnant and after that it is all about the Birth Control Pills which I really don't enjoy that much.

Now I just have to get out to the store to buy some!
