It is traditionally used in Ayurveda for minor bowel complaints including indigestion, flatulence, diarrhea, and vomiting. It is also a source of antioxidants. These are the Health Canada approved uses (NPN 80142753).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA carminative relieves flatulence and bloating by relaxing the smooth muscle of the gastrointestinal tract, allowing trapped gas to be expelled and relieving associated cramping and discomfort. Cinnamon's carminative activity is attributed primarily to cinnamaldehyde and eugenol in the bark essential oil, which have smooth muscle relaxant and antispasmodic properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCeylon vs. Cassia Cinnamon: Why It Matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCeylon Cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum)\u003c\/strong\u003e — also called true cinnamon. Native to Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon). Thin, multi-layered bark that rolls into tight quills. Contains negligible amounts of coumarin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCassia Cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia)\u003c\/strong\u003e — the most common form in North American grocery stores and most cinnamon supplements. Thick, single-layered bark. Contains approximately 250 times more coumarin per gram than Ceylon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy coumarin matters:\u003c\/strong\u003e Coumarin can cause liver damage at high doses with chronic intake. The EFSA has established a tolerable daily intake (TDI) of 0.1mg per kg body weight per day. At typical Cassia supplement doses, coumarin intake can approach or exceed this limit. Ceylon cinnamon does not present this concern at supplemental doses. This is why Ceylon is the preferred form for supplementation at higher doses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Plant: Cinnamomum verum\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA member of the Lauraceae (laurel) family, which also includes bay laurel (Laurus nobilis), avocado (Persea americana), sassafras, and camphor tree. This family relationship is the basis for the contraindication regarding allergy to other Lauraceae plants. The spice is obtained from the inner bark of young branches (branch bark, as specified in the NPN), producing the characteristic multi-layered quill structure of true Ceylon cinnamon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePrimary Bioactive Compounds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCinnamaldehyde\u003c\/strong\u003e (trans-cinnamaldehyde) comprises approximately 60 to 75% of the bark essential oil. It provides smooth muscle relaxant activity (the primary basis for carminative and antispasmodic effects), antioxidant activity, and has been studied in the context of glucose metabolism (blood sugar management is not an NPN approved claim for this product).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEugenol\u003c\/strong\u003e is a phenylpropanoid with antioxidant, smooth muscle relaxant, and mild anticoagulant properties. The anticoagulant activity is the basis for the blood thinner caution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA-type Proanthocyanidins\u003c\/strong\u003e are polyphenolic compounds that contribute to the antioxidant activity of cinnamon bark, with the same A-type linkage found in cranberry proanthocyanidins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHerbal Medicine and Ayurvedic Traditions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWestern Herbal Medicine:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cinnamon has been used as a carminative and digestive herb for centuries, addressing flatulence, bloating, mild spasms, cramps, and colic through smooth muscle relaxation in the GI tract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAyurveda:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cinnamon (twak) is classified as Katu (pungent) and Tikta (bitter) with Ushna (hot) virya, used to balance Vata and Kapha doshas.
