?Benefits of Ceylon Cinnamon?⠀
??Regulates blood sugar⠀
??Has anti-fungal and antibacterial properties ⠀
??Lowers levels of LDL cholesterol ⠀
??Aids in digestion⠀
??Reduces inflammation⠀
??Contains antioxidants ⠀
⠀
?Cassia is the most common type of cinnamon and is less expensive than Ceylon. Cassia contains coumarin which is a compound that can cause damage to the liver and kidneys. Even a dose of 1-2 teaspoons of CASSIA cinnamon can be too much for the body. Ceylon cinnamon does contain small trace amounts of coumarin but contains significantly less than cassia.⠀
??Ceylon is a higher quality and safer type of cinnamon to use.⠀
⠀
??If you currently use cinnamon in your kitchen or supplements I highly recommend switching to Ceylon Cinnamon.⠀
