Isn't this Cassia cinnamon, and doesn't cassia have high levels of Coumarin?

this label says 'cinnamon cassia bark 1000mg per 2 capsules serving' as for coumarin, you may be right, I've not done the research, but, along with taking garlic tabs, I am noticing more brisk bleeding from my infrequent, minor scrapes...

Yes. Cassia cinnamon has been shown to have high levels of coumarin (a blood thinner). The best, most effective, safest form is Ceylon cinnamon, sometimes referred to as "true cinnamon". Cassia is cheaper, therefore seen most often in supplements.

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.

This is cassia cinnamon. Cinnamoma burmanii, in fact. Still very good IMO, but if you're looking for actual cinnamon, this isn't it.

I don't know but the following info is from the bottle: INGREDIENTS: organic cinnamon; CERTIFIED by QAI; DISTRIBUTED by Frontier Natural Products Co-op, Norway, IA 52318.

On January 7 2015, I wrote the following to info@olivenation.com : "Hello, Is your cinnamon oil from cassia? Or genuine cinnamon? Thank you in advance for your reply. Ann Childers, MD" The same day I received the following answer: "Hi It is from the leaf of the cassia cinnamon plant. Thank you. Amit." So it is cassia, and not true cinnamon. I hope this is helpful. If you locate genuine cinnamon oil, please post. Thank you!

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.

sorry I can not help you with this. I just know I have bought Tone spices for years and have been happy with them all...The price is great on larger Tone containers of spices and I use it all the time. You could look up the difference in all cinnamons and then it would be debatable which is really the best and quality for the money.

I don't know. I ordered it bc it does not have as damaging effects on liver as other cinnamon in large doses

I have no idea. You could ask the supplier for that info. It is the best fresh-tasting cinnamon I've ever had and goes much further than any other I have had.

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.

No the cassia is totally different than regular cinnamon.If you want to get rid of ants this is what you do,take a soda can and add a 1/2 cup of 20 mule team borax,1/2 cup of sugar,1/4 cup water and set that out in the stream of the ants and they will walk to the can and go inside it and die.Hope that help and good luck!

I know that Vietnamese Cinnamon has an amazing flavor; however, I only use Ceylon now because of its lower coumarin levels. There is a definite link to liver failure with the higher amounts of coumarin, as much as 6-7 times in the Vietnamese vs. Ceylon. I actually like the taste of this cinnamon and am very content with my purchase. Sorry that I cannot recommend a Vietnamese cinnamon. Good luck with your search:)

No this is not ceylon, but you can buy at Penzey's Spices on line, more expensive and more the true cinnamon but I have no health problems to be concerned about with Canela Molida. Tones has always provided great spices at a fair price and this cinnamon is very fine, sweet smelling and has a great taste and much better taste than cinnamon I have bought in grocery stores.

I don't know anything about ceylon or cassia. The bottle says for ingredients, organic cinnamon. Certified organic by QAI. When I ordered it I though it was Saigon Cinnamon which I wanted for the flavor. My wife says, it was for her, it taste better than the Saigon. So I don't know about sweet or ceylon or cassia but I would say it is true cinnamon from my perspective. I hope this helps. We put it mostly in coffee but also in dishes and on a few other things.

Thanks...couldn't see the label and saw your answer. Just read a medical newsletter than said to use the Ceylon cin. and not the cassia.

That's what the label reads. This seems to help with glucose levels better that the cassia products.
