Conditions Treated Using Cinnamon:
Name: Cinnamon
Other Names: Cinnamomum verum, dalchini, Cinnamomum zeylanicum, True Cinnamon, Ceylon Cinnamon
Description:
Cinnamon is also known as Cinnamomum verum, cassia vera, Cinnamomum zeylanicum, dalchini, Ceylon Cinnamon and True Cinnamon.
The two main varieties are Cinnamomum cassia and Cinnamomum zeylanicum. True Cinnamon is a native to Ceylon (Sri Lanka), and is known as Cinnamomum zeylanicum, and is known as kwai in the Chinese language. Its botanical name derives from the Hebraic and Arabic term amomon, meaning fragrant spice plant. Ancient Egyptians used Cinnamon in their embalming process. From their word for cannon, Italians called it canella, meaning "little tube," which aptly describes Cinnamon sticks.
Cinnamon bark is widely used as a spice. It is principally employed in cookery as a condiment and flavouring material, being largely used in the preparation of some kinds of desserts, chocolate, spicy candies, tea, hot cocoa and liqueurs. In the Middle East, it is often used in savoury dishes of chicken and lamb. In the United States, Cinnamon and sugar are often used to flavour cereals, bread-based dishes, and fruits, especially apples; a Cinnamon-sugar mixture is even sold separately for such purposes. Cinnamon can also be used in pickling. Cinnamon bark is one of the few spices which can be consumed directly.
In medicine Cinnamon acts like other volatile oils and once had a reputation as a cure for colds. It has also been used to treat diarrhea and other problems of the digestive system. Cinnamon is high in antioxidant activity. The essential oil of Cinnamon also has antimicrobial properties, which aid in the preservation of certain foods. In the media, "Cinnamon" has been reported to have remarkable pharmacological effects in the treatment of type II diabetes. However, the plant material used in the study was actually cassia, as opposed to true Cinnamon. Cinnamon has traditionally been used to treat toothache and fight bad breath and its regular use is believed to stave off common cold and aid digestion.
