A cinnamon-and-turmeric infusion can modestly improve fasting glucose in people with diabetes, with much thinner data for rosemary, but talk of "making sugar disappear from your veins" and teasing an even-better "drink number 1" in the comments is a marketing device, not science.
The full read
Stripped of the staging ("they'll take this down", a secret drink to claim in the comments), the testable part of the claim covers three ingredients: cinnamon, turmeric, rosemary. A 2024 systematic review and meta-analysis (77 studies, Mediterranean-diet spices) found cinnamon and turmeric significantly reduce fasting glucose in people with type 2 diabetes, with cinnamon also showing a significant insulin reduction. Turmeric has particularly solid data on this specific point (multiple converging meta-analyses). Rosemary, though, is notably under-studied: the same systematic review couldn't find enough clinical trials to draw a conclusion on its glycemic effect. Important caveat: all of these studies are done in people who already have diabetes or metabolic syndrome, not in metabolically healthy people, and the measured effects are modest (a few mg/dL), not sugar being "flushed from your veins." The format itself (a "drink number 2" that sets up the sale of an even-better "drink number 1" via DM) is a classic commercial-content signal best approached with caution, regardless of the partial scientific backing that exists for two of the three named ingredients.
