millennia both for its flavoring and medicinal qualities. In ancient Egypt, it was used to
fill body cavities of corpses as an embalming agent. Cinnamon begins to be used
more often as the weather turns cooler and we draw closer to the holidays that seem to
rely on this fragrant spice. list of its benefits ;
1- Weight Reducer :
Cinnamon apparently has the effect of thinning your blood thereby increasing blood
circulation. Increased blood flow generally boosts your metabolism which is why it
may be helpful in weight loss. This blood thinning property of Cinnamon also helps it in
acting as an anti clotting agent especially for those suffering from heart disease.
2- blood suger control :
Numerous studies show that cinnamon regulates blood sugar, making it a great choice for diabetics and hypoglycemics alike. That’s also great news for anyone who wants stable energy levels and moods.
3- cancer prevention :
Cinnamon may actually prevent the spread and growth of cancer cells. Cancer cells
abnormally take up glucose, ignoring regular metabolic signals. Cinnamon may play a
role in establishing the proper signals and keeping sugar levels under control so
cancer cells cannot grow as quickly or spread as far.
4- lowering cholesterole level :
Lowering LDL cholesterol & triglycerides – According to a Mayo clinic article the only
possible way Cinnamon could lower cholesterol is indirectly via how the body
processes sugar and fat. But there is no direct effect on cholesterol. Still another study
in Pakistan found Cinnamon reduce triglyceride (23-30%), LDL cholesterol (7-27%), and
total cholesterol (12-26%).
5- anti osteoartheritis :
It reduces pain linked to arthritis. Cinnamon has been shown in studies at the
Department of Internal Medicine, Kangnam Korean Hospital, to reduce cytokines linked
to arthritis pain.
