Herb of the Month Focus

Cinnamon

When you think of cinnamon, what memories does it elicit?  Perhaps it causes you to think of hot apple pie, or eggnog, or cinnamon toast on a cold winter's day.  Cinnamon reminds me of sweetness, warmth,  holidays, and happiness.   What is it about this spice that makes it so popular worldwide and throughout the millennia?  

Cinnamon is a warming and drying spice that improves circulation, relieves indigestion and cramping, reduces inflammation, and lowers blood sugar and cholesterol.  Studies have shown it's effective for Type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance.  It can be used to relieve toothaches and to brush your teeth!  Cinnamon is antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic.  Try adding it to herbal tea when you have a cold or the flu as it has antimicrobial properties.

You can buy cinnamon in powder form, chips, or sticks.  DH and I love dropping a cinnamon stick in the coffee pot for cinnamon coffee.  It tastes delicious and helps keep us healthy.

To read about cinnamon in more detail, become a member and check out its datasheet.
