What is Ceylon cinnamon good for?

Many of us like cinnamon and use it quite often, but did you know that the most common cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia) can be harmful in high doses? Namely, it contains coumarin, which in case of high and long-term intake can damage the liver. Ceylon cinnamon contains much lower levels of coumarin and is also much tastier! It tastes sweeter and is milder. Other benefits of real cinnamon are rich in antioxidants, vitamin K, betaine and folate as well as iron, potassium, calcium and manganese.

Organic Ceylon cinnamon is perfect for sweet rice dishes, baked apples, mulled wine and cakes.
