Tips

  • If the plantain peels are completely black, even better, because the nutrient leucine reaches its peak.
  • Cinnamon must be real Ceylon as the common one has toxins.
  • Take it warm, preferably before 10 in the morning.
  • If you take medications for diabetes or blood pressure, consult your doctor first.
