Is this Ceylon/true cinnamon?

It is Cinnamon Cassia, which has negative effects on the liver when taken regularly. Google it!

This is not true Ceylon cinnamon, cinnamomum vera. It is listed in the list of ingredients as "cinnamomum cassia", more commonly known as chinese cinnamon, a more generic version.

It is "true" cinnamon, but not Ceylon. Cassia cinnamon is less expensive, and some doctors advise against it.

It doesn't say anything about it on the label, but Saigon cinnamon is Cassia Cinnamon and Cassia naturally contains a fair amount of coumarin. What I read said that Ceylon Cinnamon contains hardly any coumarin. This quote is from Wikipedia: "One teaspoon of cassia cinnamon powder therefore contains 5.8 to 12.1 mg of coumarin, which may be above the tolerable daily intake value for smaller individuals."

This answer came from ask.com.Cinnamon powder is not exactly the same as ground cinnamon. For cooking purposes, they can be interchanged. Ground cinnamon has a stronger flavor but a shorter shelf life.The Frontier brand you are asking about is powdered. It is ground more fine that the standard cinnamon you find at a typical grocery store. The Ceylon cinnamon has a fresher, stronger cinnamon scent and flavor. After buying and trying this brand of cinnamon I gave away what I had left of the McCormic brand. I use it just as I would have any other cinnamon.

It doesn't specifically say, but I would guess that it is Ceylon cinnamon. I read the label, but couldn't find anything specific.

This is the real deal, also known as organic true cinnamon. Don't let the bottle fool you, looks same, read the label. Ceylon cinnamon is much more tasteful than Cassia, the common cinnamon sold in grocery stores. Much more healthy also!

I do not believe it is, I have tried the organic Ceylon and it was too bitter for my taste.

Absolutely it is cinnamon - but a special type - like Thai basil is a specific type of basil...and it really really does have wonderful properties unique to Saigon cinnamon. This price is a steal! Once you try you won't ever go back to 'regular' cinnamon!!

I don't believe so. The ingredients read: Ceylon Cinnamon, Gelatin, plant fiber, magnesium Stearate and Silica.

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.

It's really Chinese Cassia cinnamon: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinnamomum_cassia

NO--the capsule contains 100% Ceylon cinnamon and the capsule itself is made of cellulose = 100% vegetarian

Cinnamomum verum, from which Ceylon cinnamon is derived, is native to Sri Lanka. It is also grown elsewhere, though. The old botanical synonym for the tree-Cinnamomum zeylanicum-is derived from Sri Lanka's former name, Ceylon and Sri Lanka still produces 80-90% of the world's supply of Cinnamomum verum. But it is also cultivated on a commercial scale in Seychelles and Madagascar. This package is clearly labeled "Cinnamomum verum J.Presl" which is the binomial name of true Ceylon cinnamon.

From what I understand, no. This is the Vietnamese cinnamon, which has a hot, intense flavor. Like Red Hots. I think Ceylon is the European variety, which is more common.

Hi John. Our Ceylon Cinnamon has not been irradiated. No chemicals have been used in the growing and harvesting process. It is pure, premium, food grade. And, our cinnamon is only freshly ground in very small batches for freshness and flavor.

I received an answer from Amit at Olive Nation today. This oil is from the leaf of the cassia plant, not from Cinnamomum zeylanicum, which is known as Ceylon cinnamon.
