Benefits of Cinnamon Bark
What Is Cinnamon Bark?
Cinnamon Bark comes from a small evergreen tree (Cinnamomum verum),
that is native to India and Sri Lanka, where it has been
traditionally used as a spice.
Cinnamon bark is a very common ingredient in products such as
toothpaste, mouthwash, chewing gum, and soft drinks. Also many
feel it it helpful in handling certain ailments and other issues.
Herbalists recommend cinnamon bark to help with digestive problems,
nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, asthma brought on by cold, backache,
menstrual problems, etc.
Cinnamon Bark Benefits
Cinnamon’s health benefits come from the fact that the bark
contains antibacterial, antiseptic, antiviral, antispasmodic, and
anti fungal properties that help to prevent infection by killing
decay-causing bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
Cinnamon bark is helpful in supporting the digestive system.
Research reports that cinnamon bark helps break down fats in the
digestive system, making it a valuable digestive aid.
A traditional stimulant in Chinese medicine, cinnamon bark has a
thermogenic effect on the body.
Other conditions which are said to be improved by cinnamon bark
include fevers and colds, coughs and bronchitis, infection and
wound healing, some forms of asthma, and even blood pressure
reduction.
Cinnamon Bark Blood Sugar Control
Cinnamon bark is also known to control blood sugar levels.
Cinnamon may help improve the bodies ability to respond to
insulin, thus normalizing blood sugar levels. Both test tube
and animal studies have shown that compounds in cinnamon not
only stimulate insulin receptors, but also inhibit an enzyme
that inactivates them, thus significantly increasing bodies
ability to use glucose.
Cinnamon Bark Weight Loss
Lowering blood sugar levels and helping combat insulin
resistance can be very helpful in weight loss. The fat cells
of the abdomen can be particularly sensitive to high insulin,
because abdominal fat cells are so close to your digestive
system, and do to the extensive blood vessels in the abdominal
area, it’s easy for abdomen fat cells to store excess glucose.
So reducing blood sugar and high insulin levels is very
helpful in any fat loss program.

regular diet or who have a need for more, Cinnamon Bark
supplements may be helpful.
