Cinnamon Helps Reduce Cardiovascular Risk in People with PCOS

NGỌC THÙY (THEO indianexpress) |

Cinnamon helps reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in people with PCOS indirectly through its anti-inflammatory properties and improving insulin resistance.

Benefits of Cinnamon for People with PCOS

Dr. Amit Khandelwal, Head of Cardiology at Paras Hospital, Udaipur (India) - said that polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a condition in which the ovaries produce an abnormal amount of androgen, leading to symptoms such as irregular menstruation, acne, obesity and other complications.

In addition to affecting fertility, it is often associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, due to metabolic disturbances through insulin resistance and obesity.

“Lifestyle changes and medications play an important role. Cinnamon can reduce risk and support heart health in women with PCOS,” says Dr. Amit Khandelwal.

Cinnamon has long been used for medicinal purposes and is increasingly recognized for its heart health benefits in women with PCOS.

This spice is known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and insulin-sensitizing properties, all of which may help address some of the underlying issues that lead to a higher risk of heart disease in women with the syndrome.

How does cinnamon help control cardiovascular risk in PCOS patients?

According to Dr. Amit Khandelwal, cinnamon has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity, which helps regulate blood sugar levels and supports better glucose metabolism.

This reduces the risk of cardiovascular problems. Additionally, cinnamon's ability to lower blood sugar can help with weight control, an important factor in reducing cardiovascular risk.

Cinnamon also reduces total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein, or LDL, or bad cholesterol levels that contribute to heart disease.

In particular, inflammation is a contributing factor to the development of cardiovascular diseases. Dr. Amit Khandelwal emphasizes that cinnamon contains anti-inflammatory compounds, which help reduce inflammation levels in the body.

However, while cinnamon may help reduce cardiovascular risk and improve overall health, it is not a substitute for formal treatments for PCOS.

People with PCOS still need to adhere to medical treatments and a healthy diet, exercise regularly, and have regular heart health monitoring.

Before using cinnamon as part of your treatment regimen, you should consult your doctor or nutritionist to ensure safety and effectiveness.
