Saigon cinnamon is amazing, if you can find it.

Have you ever tried it on beef?

I'm partial to Ceylon cinnamon myself but my goto spice place has Vietnamese which I think is another name for the Saigon

Ceylon cinnamon has the lowest levels of coumarin which is associated with liver damage. But Vietnamese has the highest levels of cinnamaldehyde, which may suppress accumulated proteins in the brain associated with Alzheimers. All I had to do was ask my wife lol.

No shit. Probably have to eat lots of it though....nothing in the amount I'm taking though.

Literally a poof of cinnamon. Nothing more. It's one of those things you almost don't taste but makes you wonder "what that is"......it really makes it savory.

Maybe a pho cook in Ho Chi Minh City could accumulate sufficient exposure. I eat plenty of cinnamon and I'm not concerned. Plus, I'm old enough that ship has sailed!

A dusting of any variety of it on your food is ok, it's when you eat a teaspoonful or more per day for any length of time that it may cause a problem, more so if you have liver problems. Folks were/are doing that trying to control sugar metabolism and reduce serum glucose and triglycerides levels. Requires quite a bit to do that though.

"One of the studies included in this review found a 23 to 30 percent decrease in triglycerides in subjects who consumed 1 to 6 grams of cinnamon per day for 40 days. A separate study with diabetic patients found a 30 percent decrease in triglycerides with 1.5 grams of cinnamon powder per day for 60 days."

"This meta-analysis of 10 studies found that consuming cinnamon produced a “statistically significant” decrease in glucose, total cholesterol, LDL and triglycerides. It also increased high-density lipoprotein (HDL or “good”) cholesterol. But researchers noted that applying these results to individuals is tricky. This is mainly because the amount and kind of cinnamon taken and use duration were different in each study."

This is how BB eats it 3 or 4 times a week:

"If you do want to add cinnamon to your diet, however, the best way to do it is to sprinkle it on your oatmeal or cook with about one-half teaspoon to one teaspoon daily."
