• Traditionally used to help support symptoms of diarrhea, chills, joint pain, menstrual disorders, nausea and more.
Cinnamon is a traditional supportive for dyspeptic complaints (flatulence, digestive issues, loss of appetite and diarrhoea). It can also be used in folk tradition to help support inflammation, joint pain, colds, nausea and vomiting and menstrual disorders. Cinnamon is used to improve the taste and aroma of some health products. Non-health uses are well known - it is a popular spice in cooking and the essential oil is used in perfumery.

Cinnamon Bark Tree
Cinnamomum verum J. Presl (= zeylanicum Nees).

Family: Lauraceae.

Other Names: Ceylon cinnamon; canellier, canelle de Ceylon (French); Ceylon-Zimtbaum (German); cannella (Italian); canelo de Ceilán (Spanish).

Description: A medium-sized, evergreen tree with leathery, opposite or subopposite leaves. The small flowers are followed by oblong, dark purple fruits, 10 to 15 mm long. The old name for the tree is C. zeylanicum.

Origin: Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon) and parts of India. It is cultivated commercially in many tropical parts of the world, including eastern India, Africa, the Seychelles, South America, the West Indies and Indonesia.

Parts Used: Inner bark of branches and coppice shoots (cinnamon or cinnamon bark; Cinnamomi ceylanici cortex); essential oil (Cinnamomi aetheroleum)

Therapeutic Category: Dyspeptic disorders, astringent.

Active Ingredients: Cinnamon bark contains essential oil, with cinnamaldehyde as the main constituent (65-80 %) and smaller amounts of trans-cinnamic acid, o-methoxycinnamaldehyde, about 10% eugenol and monoterpenoids. Also present are procyanidins, diterpenes, phenylpropanoids, and polysaccharides. Oil from leaves contains 70-90% eugenol.

Health Effects: The oil has documented carniinative and antispasmodic properties. Antispasmodic activity is due to cinnamaldehyde, while disinfectant effects are attributed to the presence of o-methoxy-cinnamaldehyde and eugenol.

Notes: Cinnamon is often adulterated with the less desirable C. aromaticum.

Status: Pharm.; Comm. E+; WHO 1.

Prearation and Dosage: The bark is used in its crude form as powder or extract. A dose of up to 1.2 g of dry bark may be used (daily dose of 2 - 4 g; in the case of the essential oil, 0.05 - 0.2 g of an oil fit for internal consumption.



The ground bark of the East Indian cinnamon tree (Cinnamomum zeylanicum), native to Ceylon, India and Malaya, one of the oldest trade items from the Far East, has been used since antiquity as a breath sweetener, a tonic for the whole system: heart, stomach, liver, kidneys, gall and nerves. It was also considered a supportive for heartburn, nausea and diarrhoea, and as a sedative for expectant mothers during childbirth.

Cinnamon has for all time been known as a stimulant and aromatic plant. These properties derive from those of its two active principles: essential oil and tannin. The first gives the plant its stimulant effect which can rouse contractions in a sluggish alimentary canal while producing some local analgesia which makes it useful in cases of stomach aches; it can quicken the pulse, raise the temperature and rouse pulmonary circulation; it is the drug for fainting, a general state of cold brought on by rain or submersion. It is very useful coughs and colds. It stimulates the uterus, menstruation and uterine hemorrhages. Because of its tannin, cinnamon has an astringent effect, heightens gastric energy, but increases constipation unless mixed with a laxative.

Cinnamon is also known by the names Cassia, Sweet Wood, and Gui Zhi. The part of this plant used are the dried inner bark of the shoots, and the oil distilled from the bark and leaves. Cinnamon is an ancient herbal health mentioned in Chinese texts as long ago as 4,000 years. Cinnamon was used in ancient Egypt for embalming. In ancient times, it was added to food to help avoid spoiling. During the Bubonic Plague, sponges were soaked in cinnamon and cloves, and placed in sick rooms.

Cinnamon was the most sought after spice during explorations of the 15th and 16th centuries. It has also been burned as an incense. The smell of Cinnamon is pleasant, help stimulates the senses, yet calms the nerves. Its smell is reputed to attract customers to a place of business. Most s consider Cinnamon a simple flavoring, but in traditional China, it's one of the oldest supportives, prescribed for everything from diarrhea and chills to digestive issues.

Cinnamon comes from the bark of a small Southeast Asian evergreen tree, and is available as an oil, extract, or dried powder. It's closely related to Cassia (Cassia tora), and contains many of the same components, but the bark and oils from Cinnamon have a better flavor. Cinnamon has a broad range of historical uses in different cultures, including supporting diarrhea, joint pain, and certain menstrual disorders. Traditionally, the bark was believed best for the torso, the twigs for the fingers and toes. Research has highlighted hypoglycemic properties, useful in maintaining healthy blood sugar levels. Cinnamon brandy is made by soaking crushed Cinnamon bark a "fortnight" in brandy.

While most s consider Cinnamon a simple flavoring, traditional Chinese health has prescribed this herb everything from diarrhea and chills to digestive issues. Chinese herbalists tell of older people, in their 70s and 80s, developing a cough accompanied by frequent spitting of whitish phlegm. A helpful supportive, they suggest, is chewing and swallowing a very small pinch of powdered cinnamon. This supportive can also help people with cold feet and hands, especially at night. Germany's Commission E approves Cinnamon for appetite loss and indigestion. The primary chemical constituents of this herb include cinnamaldehyde, gum, tannin, mannitol, coumarins, and essential oils (aldehydes, eugenol, pinene). Cinnamon is predominantly used as a carminative addition to herbal prescriptions. It is used in flatulent dyspepsia, dyspepsia with nausea, intestinal colic and digestive atony associated with cold and debilitated complaints. It supports nausea and vomiting, and, because of its mild astringency, it is particularly useful in infantile diarrhea. The cinnamaldehyde component is hypotensive and spasmolytic, and helps support the increase peripheral blood flow. The essential oil of this herb is a potent disinfectant, and uterine stimulant. The various terpenoids found in the volatile oil are believed to account for Cinnamon's health uses.

Test tube studies also show that Cinnamon can augment the action of insulin. However, use of Cinnamon to improve the action of insulin in people with blood sugar level concerns has yet to be proven in clinical trials. Topical applications of Cinnamon include use as a hair rinse for dark hair, and as a toothpaste flavoring to freshen breath. As a wash, it supports infections such as athletes foot. It can also be used in massage oils. You can also place Cinnamon in sachets to repel moths. Its prolonged use is known to beautify the skin and promote a rosy complexion. The common name Cinnamon encompasses many varieties, including Cinnamomum cassia and Cinnamomum saigonicum, which are used interchangeably with Cinnamomum zeylanicum.

Cinnamon is almost as familiar as it's possible for an herb to be. It flavors toothpaste and mouthwash, is sprinkled on toast and into muffins, and is blended in teas. It's also used for health benefits, especially the bark, and was known for its restoring properties in ancient Egypt, China, and India. The bark is dried and turned into the sweet, yellow-brown spice used by millions of amateur and professional cooks and bakers.

Potential Health Benefits

Cinnamon bark calms unsettled stomachs, revives appetite, supports digestion, and helps alleviate flatulence and that bloated feeling.

Scientific Evidence

Cinnamon oil found in bark stimulates the production of bile, helping the body break down fats. The chemical eugenol, found in the essential oil, is also present in cloves. Cinnamon has disinfectant qualities, which is why it's a fine ingredient in toothpaste, mouthwash, and gum. It also kills fungi. A German study found that cinnamon supports the fight against urinary tract health concerns, while Japanese researchers concluded that it can help reduce high blood pressure - a point not often addressed in references to cinnamon.

How to Use the Herb

The daily dosage of bark recommended by the commission is 2-4 grams. The daily dose for essential oil is 0.05-0.2 grams of equivalent preparation. Cinnamon tea for upset stomachs is commonly taken 2 to 3 times per day with meals.

  The Best Cinnamon

When looking for a product I always do muscle testing to see if first the potency is good, and second that my body will use it for my highest good. Naturally until product is in hand I can not test this. Well, I am happy to report the potency energy level ranks at 9 (10 being the highest), the aroma is very strong meaning it is high potency, and my body likes it. I have had some pretty high priced products that have an energy ranking anywhere from 0-3, so this speaks very well of this product. I would not hesitate to refer this to people.
