Health benefits of Cinnamon

Health benefits of Cinnamon


Lowering the negative effects of high fat meals
Researchers concluded that diets rich in "antioxidant spices," including cinnamon, may help reduce the body's negative response to eating high-fat meals. Six people consumed dishes containing 14 g of a spice blend. Blood tests showed that antioxidant activity increased by 13 percent and insulin response fell by 20 percent.

Combat acne

Cinnamon can stop acne-causing bacteria in its tracks! To make one great-smelling acne mask, simply combine 3 tablespoons of honey with 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon to form a paste. Leave it on your skin for 10 minutes, then wash it off and enjoy your refreshed face.

HIV
A study of extracts of Indian medicinal plants found that cinnamon may help protect against HIV. This does not mean that foods containing cinnamon can treat or prevent HIV, but cinnamon extracts could one day be useful as part of a therapy.

Cinnamon has antimicrobial properties

Cinnamon has been proven to fight fungal, bacterial, and viral elements in foods. According to our experts, who say cinnamon can be used as part of a treatment for anything from lung problems to the common cold. Denise Baron, a wellness educator and director of Ayurveda for Modern Living explains that cinnamon can help with all sorts of lung congestion issues.
