Attention! If you are using cinnamon for medicinal purposes, make sure it is Ceylon cinnamon, which comes from the original cinnamon tree and has significantly higher nutritional content compared to the cheaper varieties sold in chain stores. It should also be organic and non-irradiated. Our offered ground cinnamon powder meets all of these quality standards and comes from Sri Lanka (formerly known as Ceylon).
Cinnamon helps with blood sugar-related issues. It is especially recommended for both type 1 and type 2 diabetics. It protects against high blood pressure and kidney damage caused by diabetes and helps lower blood sugar levels. Flavoring high-carb foods with cinnamon helps keep your blood sugar under control and reduces common hunger spikes.
It also improves insulin sensitivity and blood lipid levels.
Cinnamon has anti-inflammatory effects and can fight many bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Well-known pathogens that dislike cinnamon include yeast (candida), E. coli, influenza virus H1N1, head lice, HIV, klebsiella (which causes pneumonia and urinary tract infections), and staphylococcus. Cinnamon is a natural food preservative.
Cinnamon reduces cholesterol levels and thereby helps lower the risk of heart disease. As a remedy, cinnamon has effects similar to ginger—enhancing circulation and balancing the body's overall metabolism.
Additionally, cinnamon helps with weight loss. To do this, drink 1 cup of hot water with honey and cinnamon in the morning on an empty stomach, at least 30 minutes before eating. Drink it again in the evening before bedtime.
Cinnamon is also used in many Ayurvedic prescriptions. In Chinese medicine, cinnamon has been proven to suppress and destroy tuberculosis bacteria.
We encourage you to use cinnamon more boldly in your dishes, even in savory meals!
