Give us a little extra cinnamon…
1. The taste
Cinnamon can give dishes a subtle sweet taste. It tastes good through yogurt, chocolate milk, a smoothie and even savory dishes. Cinnamon is a versatile spice, and should not be missing from your spice rack.
2. Cinnamon has antibacterial properties Cinnamon has antibacterial properties, just like honey. Cinnamon is therefore good for a starting cold and sore throat. Fun fact:because of the antibacterial effect, food with cinnamon in it stays good for a little longer.
3. Cinnamon is good for your digestion Cinnamon used to be widely used for digestive problems. You probably can't expect miracles, but helping your digestion a little won't hurt.
4. Cinnamon has a warming effect Cinnamon warms your body, so it's a nice warm-up in the colder months. We associate the taste and smell of cinnamon with winter, which also gives you a cozy feeling.
5. Cinnamon is good for your blood sugar level
This results in fewer spikes in your blood sugar level, which helps to control your hunger.
