If cinnamon is known to be hepatotoxic and a tolerable daily intake is roughly 0.1 mg/kg/day. An average woman, of say, 65kg could tolerably consume 6.5mg/day. However, 85mg, 3 times a day would be 255mg. But her supplement says cinnamon extract. Is that different? Is it like an essential oil?
Thankyou for explaining, breaking everything down. A few years ago I was influenced by all the bad BGL/foods, after listening to you and others I am not chasing the endless trend, goal of lowering BGL; now eating wholesome carbs and saving a lot of money by not buying supplements.
