Cinnamon Essential Oil, Organic

Latin Name: Cinnamomum Cassia

General Description: Nature's Flavors Organic Cinnamon Oil is 100% NOP CERTIFIED ORGANIC. This organic essential oil has been heavily used as a local domestic spice in the United States for hundreds of years. As for its natural health benefits, organic cinnamon essential oil has mainly been used for digestive problems. It has been reported that cassia (or cinnamon as it is commonly called) can be used in the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes. At low doses this oil can be a nervous system
stimulant but turns into a depressant with higher doses. Organic cinnamon also has powerful antimicrobial benefits but be careful not to put it directly on your skin
as it will burn if allowed to sit there undiluted. If youre going to use organic cinnamon directly on your skin, then its best if you dilute the organic cinnamon in organic coconut oil or organic olive oil. Both are sold on the Nature's Flavors website. Nature's Flavors Organic Cinnamon Oil is safe to use in food products and, just like the dry spice, the essential oil can be used in much the same way except youll use less of the oil. You should start with one tenth and go up from there if needed.

Ingredients: 100% Organic Cinnamon (or Cassia) Essential Oil

How It's Made: The oil can be made in one of two ways. It can be extracted from the leaves by steam distillation of the freshly picked organic cassia leaves and outer bark of the tree or it can be extracted by water distillation from the bark, leaves, twigs and stalks.

Safety Guidelines: This organic essential oil is toxic to the skin even in low doses and will irritate or burn the skin. Organic Cinnamon Essential Oil should not be used directly on the skin. The oil should first be mixed with a diluting or carrier oil.
