Cinnamon 400mg, 100 VegeCaps

Cinnamon – A spice with a millennia-old tradition

Cassia cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia) is one of the most important types of cinnamon, known for its intense aroma. The characteristic flavor comes from an essential oil that contains 65 to 75% cinnamaldehyde. Additionally, Cassia cinnamon contains the secondary plant compound coumarin, which gives it a slightly bitter and spicy note.

History and cultural significance

Cinnamon is one of the oldest and most valuable spices in the world. The Egyptians used it for embalming and as incense. The Greek physician Hippocrates praised its properties, and the Romans considered it an aphrodisiac. Due to its high value, cinnamon was long regarded as an exclusive spice reserved for kings and gods.

Aroma and characteristics

The intense flavor of cinnamon primarily comes from cinnamaldehyde in the plant's essential oil. Cassia cinnamon also contains coumarin, which in higher amounts may be considered problematic but contributes to its distinctive aroma. Cinnamon is valued worldwide for its unique taste and is used in both sweet and savory dishes.
