This is not Saigon Cinnamon which means it has high Coumarin Levels?

Not in this product, most of the cinnamon flavored drinks, and tea's have Coumarin, which can cause Liver problem in certain people. There are a lot of pure Cinnamon sources in this world Vietnam, is just one of many!

This is the low-coumarin type of cinnamon, but I don't know if it's measured for exact amount. You can probably look up an approximate amount for this type. It's also sweeter than other kinds of cinnamon, although it is not sweetened.

Yes, it is Cassia cinnamon. I do not know how high the level of Coumarin is or how much is considered a problem. I take the 2 capsules each day and haven't noticed any problems.

No, but their turmeric is. I have had both and honestly would never buy another cinnamon again. IT IS THE BEST!:)

From what I have read from the internet, coumarin is a natural or integral component of cinnamon. It did not come from an external source. When a product is organic, it just means no harmful chemical got added to it either from using pesticides in growing the plant or use of chemicals or solvents during the processing of the product in the form that it will be sold. This species of Ceylon cinnamon is supposed to be lower in coumarin content than the cassia species that is sold in spice bottles and that is the reason I bought it and it is supposed to be organic and non-GMO or not genetically modified.

I cannot answer your question with a definite yes or no. I tried researching it on the internet and I think it is a blend of ceylon and other asian varieties. I don't honestly know if it is truly " organic ". All I can verify is that it is the best tasting cinnamon I have ever tasted. For me, where it comes from is mute point. IT just has the right "bite" on my tongue. Sorry I am unable to answer your question with a definite yes or no. Harold

it doesn't say on the bottle. It was 1 of only two choices in our local health food/local farmers Co-Op store that was guaranteed to NOT contain any hidden Corn-based ingredients/fillers. I use more of it since it seems to be milder flavor (and maybe because it's pure? cinnamon only). I have also bought Saigon cinnamon, which seems to have more intense, bolder flavor. They have it in the Bulk area, which is cheaper, and you can get the exact amount that you want.

it's labeled as Ceylon cinnamon. Ceylon was the former name for Sri Lanka. So I'm guessing it is.

I did not find Ceylon on the bottle, only that it is certified natural organic cinnamon. It is really good and keeps my type 2 diabetes under control.

I have purchased this very package and have had no concerns about it. It is Ceylon Cinnamon and the flavor is mild and sweet unlike Cassia which is stronger and "hotter". The color is also lighter indicating that this is true cinnamon and not Cassia

The ingredients listed on the bottle are: Micro Crystalline celluouse, magnesium stearate, silica. The main ingredient is ceylon cinnamon. I hope this information is helpful.

Did you mean Coumarin? The label on the bottle specifically says "No Contiene Cuminara/Does Not Contain Coumarin

All cinnamon contains coumarin. This is cassia cinnamon and therefore contains more than ceylon (true) cinnamon. Over-consumption can lead to liver damage, I've read. And those who are sensitive to coumarin should generally avoid cassia. As I understand it, this is the type of cinnamon that Cinnabon uses. I've used it for years with daily consumption in oatmeal and higher amounts in zucchini bread, cookies, and cinnamon rolls. I've had no negative effects. I've fed my infant oatmeal with this cinnamon in it before and she is perfectly fine. Don't use it in those diet fads or in high amounts with coffee. All cinnamon contains coumarin.

No. It almost certainly tastes sweet from the type of cinnamon they use and the anise seed. I own some vietnamese cinnamon that is so sweet and spicy it tastes like powdered red hot candy.

Good question. My bottle says that too and I have never noticed it before. If you are concerned, call Nutramax and ask them. 1-888-886-6442.

Francesa, this cinnamon is certified organic as presented on the label. It would not be so labeled if GMO'd
