Cinnamon (Bark) - Used as a medicine for several thousand years in both Eastern and Western traditions to relieve blood pressure, improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood glucose levels.

Fenugreek (seed) -  It has been used in folk medicine to reduce blood sugar. Kassaian et al (2009) showed that fenugreek seeds can be used as an adjuvant in the control of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Ginger (root) - The result of study by Sekiya et al (2004) showed that ginger extracts were found to enhance the adipocyte differentiation that increased insulin-sensitive glucose uptake in the treated cells. I(t is expected that ginger could enhance the insulin-sensitivity, and improve chronic disease, such as diabetes.

Oat (fiber) - Oat and oat by-products have been proven to be helpful in the treatment of diabetes and cardiovascular disorders. Study by Liatis et al (2009), showed that water-soluble dietary fiber tetaglucan, a natural component of oats, enriched bread may contribute to the improvement of the lipid profile and insulin resistance in patients with type II diabetes.

Liatis, S., et al (2009). The consumption of bread enriched with betaglucan reduces LDL-cholesterol and improves insulin resistance in patients with type 2 diabetes. Diabetes Metab. Apr;35(2):115-20. [PMID: 19230737]

Psyllium (seed) - Has a long history of traditional use as a medicine in the US, Europe, China, and India. According to Ziai et al (2005), psyllium decreased serum glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) significantly in diabetic outpatients.
