A group of 14 patients (7 women and 7 men) with DM2 without adequate control, treated with metformin 850mg daily, who will receive 1g of cinnamomum cassia orally every 8 hours, for 90 days.

A group of 14 patients (7 women and 7 men) with DM2 without adequate control, treated with metformin 850mg daily, who will receive 1g of placebo (calcined magnesia) orally every 8 hours, for 90 days.

Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

The sample size will be 28 patients, 14 men and 14 women.

The intervention period will be 90 days, unlike other trials with Cinnamomum cassia and the main effect sought is on IGF1 levels, in addition to metabolic control.

Cinnamomum Cassia

The intervention period will be 90 days, unlike other trials with Cinnamomum cassia and comparison with placebo. The main effect sought is on IGF1 levels, in addition to metabolic control.

Controlled clinical trial, of two parallel groups, double blind, with random assignment and control group.
Process:
Visit 1 / Day -7: Period of scrutiny, study information, consent signature, clinical history, anthropometry, baseline laboratory tests.
Visit 2 / Day 0: Start the intervention period, simple random assignment for study groups, delivery of medication, general recommendations of diet and exercise.
Visit 3 / Day 30 - Visit 4 / Day 60: Adherence to treatment, taking laboratory tests, evaluation of adverse events, general recommendations of diet and exercise, general recommendations of diet and exercise will be evaluated.
Final Visit / Day 90 ± 7: Anthropometric measurements will be taken, laboratory tests will be taken, treatment adherence and adverse events will be evaluated, end of the intervention period.

Random assignment of groups and blinding:
All participants will be submitted to the selection of a sealed envelope which will have a numerical code previously defined by a third party for each intervention group.
The total number of envelopes required to complete the minimum number of participants (28) will be divided according to sex in two boxes, there will be 14 envelopes for men and 14 envelopes for women, with numerical codes that identify the bottle of intervention treatment that should receive the participant during the intervention period. They will be divided into 7 blinded codes for cinnamomum cassia group and 7 for placebo to complete the size of each subsample. Chance guarantees blinding, neither the participant nor the researcher will know the type of treatment. The database for the blinded statistical analysis will be completed. The blind man will be removed once the statistical analysis has been completed.
