TRUE CEYLON CINNAMON Vs CASSIA: UNCOVERING THE TRUTH

For centuries, both Cassia and Ceylon cinnamon (True cinnamon) have been utilized in traditional medicine, but their medicinal profiles reveal notable distinctions.

The primary concern with cassia is its remarkably high coumarin content, reaching up to 7% , which poses a risk of toxicity and liver and kidney damage. In contrast, true Ceylon cinnamon boasts a significantly lower coumarin content, capped at 0.04%, rendering it a safer option for regular use.

Furthermore, true Ceylon cinnamon has demonstrated promising anti-diabetic and anti-cancer properties, whereas cassia's medicinal benefits are primarily confined to its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties.

Consequently, true cinnamon is widely considered the preferred choice for medicinal purposes, particularly for individuals seeking to manage their blood sugar levels or alleviate inflammation.
