Person445 (OP) User ID: 41756472 Canada 10/16/2013 03:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Ceylon Cinnamon is the healthy one....Saigon and cheap grocery store brand cinnamons are DANGEROUS at recommended 'health benefit' levels! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 42554313 Do some research, folks...partial truths can be deadly! Now before you go rushing out to purchase cinnamon you should know a thing or two; be certain that you buy premium or grade A cinnamon. Look for the volatile oil content; that's what gives cinnamon its flavor. It should have at least 2% volatile oil. There are three types of cinnamon to consider: Korintje Cassia cinnamon, Vietnamese cinnamon, and Sri Lankan or Ceylon cinnamon. Korintje cassia cinnamon comes from Indonesia, usually Sumatra. It comes from the cassia tree, not the true cinnamon tree, and is the cinnamon we are most familiar with. Good quality Korintje cassia is sweet and mellow. Lower quality cinnamon, the B and C grades commonly sold in the stores, is often bitter and astringent. You can tell the difference by tasting it. Dab a little on your finger and put it in your mouth. Premium Korintje cassia cinnamon will be smooth with an almost citrus tone. Vietnamese cinnamon also comes from the cassia tree but it has a very different tone resulting in a different experience when baked. Botanically, it is the same but is harvested and processed differently resulting in the different flavor. It is stronger and spicier with more cinnamon oil flavor. It is delightful in apple and pumpkin pies and desserts. Ceylon cinnamon is true cinnamon coming from the cinnamon tree. In some parts of the world, it is preferred over cassia cinnamon. It is less pronounced in flavor and has a more citrus overtone. [5] Each variety has its merits and I recommend trying them all. Remember not to overbuy as spices do lose their potency and freshness over time. Try to purchase no more than what is needed for 1 year.

Anytime someone says, 'Ooh, this is so good - what's in this?' the answer invariably comes back, 'cinnamon.' Cinnamon. Again and again. ~ Seinfeld Quoting: Person445 If Seinfeld had his way and cinnamon were on tables in restaurants with salt and pepper, people would be a lot healthier. In fact this natural stimulant is one of the oldest known medicines and was widely used in ancient Egypt over 4000 years ago. In medieval times doctors used cinnamon to treat conditions such as coughing, arthritis and sore throats. Cinnamon is especially effective against arthritis and inflammation when applied topically by increasing the flow of blood at the surface of the skin. This draws out the inflammation and congestion from the deeper tissue. Cinnamon is well regarded because of its antioxidant properties. It also contains calcium, manganese, iron and dietary fiber. It is known to help prevent diabetes, improve heart health and brain function and fights off colon cancer. Cinnamon is commonly used as a carminative (gas-prevention) addition to other herbs. It relieves nausea and vomiting. Because of its mild astringency it is used against diarrhea. Cinnamon is an anticatarrhal herb meaning it helps eliminate or counter-act the formation of mucus, thus making it an effective treatment against catarrh.
