Most of you will wonder what these three have in common…well…
Diabetes is a chronic condition that cannot be cured, however it can be controlled with medication. At least that’s what doctors say.
Coriandrum Sativum known as Coriander has been used as a well-known spice all over the world. Among other illnesses the coriander seeds have been used to treat diabetes also.
The coriander seeds have been proved very useful in helping the pancreas to produce insulin as well as lowering the cholesterol levels in the blood.
The coriander essential oil mixed with carrier oil and applied every night on the feet might help your body fight the diabetes in a natural way.
Cinnamomum zeylanicum known simply as Cinnamon is one of the most commonly used spice. And still, many people are not aware of its therapeutic use.
Cinnamon is also known to help the body produce insulin naturally and also reducing the LDL-the bad cholesterol, without affecting the levels of HDL-the good cholesterol.
In June 2011 an article on CNN Health was stating that 350 million people in the world have diabetes and that the global diabetes rates doubled from 2008 to 2010 which is quite scary.
What is more shocking is that even though technology and medicine is globally more advanced than it was 5 years ago, the rate of sickness in the word is higher and higher. Fair enough, the number of population is growing as well…but shouldn’t have been somewhere a balance instead of growing the number of illnesses and diseases as long as the medicine and technology advances?

Note: Whenever aromatherapy is involved it is a must that you use only Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils and not some cheap, synthetic aromatic oils. Make sure the oils that you purchase are pesticide free and have been tested. Always check with your therapist and check all contraindications of any Essential Oil before usage.
