How a Simple (?) spice may save your live.
Yesterday I mentioned that I think Cinnamon is the most powerful spice. Recently the US government was studying how different foods affect your blood sugar. They had a very unusual result; they found that apple pie actually lowers your bloods sugar. Since it is almost all sugar they were surprised.
