About Cinnamon

Cinnamon, a fragrant spice derived from the inner bark of trees in the Cinnamomum genus, has been treasured for centuries for its flavor and health benefits. Originating from regions like Sri Lanka, India, and Southeast Asia, it is a staple in both sweet and savory dishes across various cuisines, including Middle Eastern, Indian, and Western baking traditions. Rich in antioxidants, cinnamon may help reduce inflammation, support heart health, and regulate blood sugar levels. It contains essential nutrients like manganese, fiber, and small amounts of calcium and iron. While its benefits are notable, overconsumption, especially of Cassia cinnamon, can pose health risks due to its higher coumarin content, which may affect liver function. Used in moderation, cinnamon is a flavorful and health-promoting addition to meals, beverages, and desserts.
