Guest guest Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 I have been taking 1/2 tsp cinnamon daily (mixed in my oatmeal) now for going on two years. As I have also done many other things to benefit my health I cannot say for certain that the cinnamon has been beneficial. However, it tastes quite good added to oatmeal and continued research seems to indicate that it is good for us - so I will continue the daily use. Jean N.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Read someplace where the cinnamon in our cabinet is not the same one that they did the test with. Another thing - cinnamon has two parts -- a water soluble part and an oil soluble part. If not eating any oils when you take the cinnamon over a period of time it can harm you. If you put the cinnamon in a coffee filter and heat - with your coffee - you get the water soluble part that is o.k. Cinnamon in apple pie has oils in the crust and therefore all parts can be used for your nutrition. I put cinnamon on 1/4 apple for breakfast in the morning along with my bacon, eggs. The oil in the meat and eggs make it ok for consumption according to my MD. thea ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- I have been taking 1/2 tsp cinnamon daily (mixed in my oatmeal) now for going on two years.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Could you please send us your source for the need for oil with cinnamon? I have not found that in any of my research on cinnamon and would like to check it out. Always good to have all the facts.
