Health and fertility benefits of Grilled Pork Tenderloins Recipe

Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly. (Reference: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11506060). One tbsp of honey has a glycemic index (GI) of 55.

Ingredients

1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/3 cup teriyaki sauce

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 pork tenderloins (about 1 pound each)

In a large bowl, combine the first 10 ingredients. Pour half of the marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add tenderloins. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate 8 hours or overnight, turning occasionally. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.

Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with rice. Freeze option: Freeze uncooked pork in bag with marinade. Transfer reserved marinade to a freezer container; freeze.
