Cinnamon

This age-old earthy spice is more than just a holiday garnish for eggnog. One teaspoon of cinnamon has as many antioxidants as one cup of pomegranate juice or one-half cup blueberries. Emerging research suggests that some compounds in cinnamon may help regulate blood sugar levels.

Cinnamon isn’t just for sweets. It’s also a great addition to savory dishes such as stews, pork and roasted vegetables.
