Cinnamon is available powdered from most food stores or as capsules from health food stores. Keep cinnamon in a tightly sealed container in the dark. It may be added liberally to food at meals or consumed as a supplement. Cinnamon is generally considered safe, although a recommended dose has not been established. Use cinnamon with caution if you take blood thinners or medication to lower blood glucose, as it may interact with these medicines.
While a small banana would contain about 12 grams of sugar, a medium one would contain around 14 grams, a large one would contain about 17 grams, and an extra large banana would contain about 19 grams of sugar. But this does not mean that diabetics cannot eat bananas.
A large banana contains 6.6 grams of fructose, while a small banana boasts 4.9 grams. Your body quickly absorbs the glucose in bananas but takes somewhat longer to absorb the fructose and other sugars. This means bananas provide quick, short-term energy.
