The Science Ceylon Cinnamon
There are actually two types of cinnamon commonly available: Ceylon cinnamon, also known as Cinnamomum verum, and Cassia cinnamon, or Cinnamomum cassia. Both types are just sold as "cinnamon" in the US, but Ceylon cinnamon is considered more delicate and less pungent than Cassia cinnamon. They both contain the same active ingredients and flavor but have different potencies.
Ceylon cinnamon comes from the bark of cinnamon trees, which are small evergreens found in Sri Lanka and much of Southeast Asia. Ceylon cinnamon also offers some impressive health benefits.
The vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants in Ceylon cinnamon provide significant health benefits. For example, cinnamon is full of beta-carotene, which is part of the reason for its rich brown color. The carotene family of pigments acts as important provitamins, A provitamin is a substance that may be converted within the body to a vitamin.

Antioxidants protect your body from oxidative damage caused by free radicals.
Cinnamon is loaded with powerful antioxidants, such as polyphenols.
In a study that compared the antioxidant activity of 26 spices, cinnamon wound up as the clear winner, even outranking “superfoods” like garlic and oregano. In fact, it is so powerful that cinnamon can be used as a natural food preservative.

Insulin is one of the key hormones that regulate metabolism and energy use.
It’s also essential for transporting blood sugar from your bloodstream to your cells.
The problem is that many people are resistant to the effects of insulin.
This is known as insulin resistance, a hallmark of serious conditions like metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. The good news is that cinnamon can dramatically reduce insulin resistance, helping this important hormone do its job. By increasing insulin sensitivity, cinnamon can lower blood sugar levels

Ceylon cinnamon improved cognition in rats given a drug meant to induce cognitive decline. Specifically, the rats showed improved memory and recall after taking cinnamon extract[*].
When it comes to brain health, ceylon cinnamon extracts seem to slow down the progression and even improve some symptoms of “neurodegenerative” diseases (that result from a gradual loss of neuron function), like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. At least this has been shown in animal studies.
