In one study, volunteers ate from 1 to 6 grams of cinnamon for 40 days. (One gram of ground cinnamon is about half a teaspoon.) The researchers found that cinnamon cut cholesterol by about 18% and blood sugar levels by 24%. But in other studies, the spice did not lower blood sugar or cholesterol levels.
The type of wave energy that Oceanlinx converts into electricity is a combination of the kinetic and potential energy of water particles. Waves cause the water particles to oscillate in elliptical paths, with the maximum kinetic energy happening as the height of the wave passes through the mean sea level.
Waves are known as an energy transport phenomenon, a disturbance that travels through a medium from one particle to the next. Waves may be compromised of sound, water and even electromagnetic energy. The energy of a wave can be measured in terms of frequency and wavelength, regardless of the type of wave or through which medium it can travel. Waves that are made of electromagnetic energy do not require a medium and are able to transfer energy through the vacuum of space. Learn more about Optics & Waves
