Is this Cinnamon irradiated and is not Cassia

I do not know if the cinnamon is irradiated. The packaging does state it is Ceylon Cinnamon.

It's certified organic so that should mean not irradiated. It is not Cassia, in fact here is a link that explains the difference, http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702303376904579135502891970942

I have no idea about the "irradiation", but it is NOT Cassia. It is Ceylon and it is wonderful. It is very mild tasting and has a full bouquet of cinnamon smell. I can take it mixed with just a few tablespoons of water and find it easy and it doesn't burn.

The ingredients on the bottle are listed as "Pure Cinnamon Leaf Oil" so yes, it's real cinnamon.

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 don't have any idea if it has or not. There is nothing that says it has been tested, and I am not sure if the label "organic" means it passed any rigorous growing conditions or testing or it's just marketing. The cinnamon, though, is spectacular flavour. Never had anything this intense in flavour.

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.

the cinnamon is, of course, from Ceylon. It is packaged in Issaquah, Washington. It is probably also put into the 100% vegetarian cellulose capsules in WA - information from the GreenPacks label.

ALL cinnamon is cassia (false cinnamon) unless specifically stated. Genuine cinnamon is CEYLON and will say so on the label and reflect it in the price tag as it is significantly more expensive and has no issues with coumarin which can be toxic to the liver. True cinnamon is the bark of a tree native to Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon), the most prevalent species names of which are Cinnamomum verum ("true cinnamon") and C. zeylanicum ("Ceylon cinnamon"), of which C. seylanicum is a variant spelling. In Europe, the word "cinnamon" is limited to this species. In other words , in the US we eat the fake stuff and in Europe they eat the real stuff. Buy Ceylon ONLY to ensure you're getting the real deal. ALL cinnamon is cassia (false cinnamon) unless specifically stated.

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

Package says that it is non- irradiated and non sulfited, but does not give specifics on process. Need to go to Frontiercoop.com for further info.

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

As it is certified Organic, I would imagine it isn't irradiated either. But why not just ask Starwest directly? Their number is: 1-800-800-4372.

Hi,I am not sure if it is pure or not. All I can tell is that frontier ground ceylon cinnamon has a better taste and aroma. I returned mine to amazon and got a refund.

Sorry, I was out of town and didn't have a way to answer but this is the best cinnamon I have ever bought.. It is a pleasant taste, not bitter like regular cinnamon I'm not sure about the origin.

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.

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.
