What is coumarin ? : (Text from wikipedia.com)
Coumarin is moderately toxic to the liver and kidneys.Although only somewhat dangerous to humans, coumarin is a potent rodenticide. Germany has established a "tolerable daily intake" (TDI) of 0.1 mg coumarin per kg body weight, but also advises, [if] this level is exceeded for a short time only, there is no threat to health. For example, a person weighing 60 kg (about 132 lbs) would have a TDI of approximately 6.0 mg of coumarin. Germany has warned against consuming high amounts of cassia bark, one of the four species of cinnamon, because of its coumarin content. According to the Germany, 1 kg of (cassia) cinnamon powder contains approximately 2.1 to 4.4 g of coumarin.Powdered Cassia Cinnamon weighs 0.56 g/cc; therefore, 1 kg of Cassia Cinnamon powder is equal to 362.29 teaspoons (1000 g divided by 0.56 g/cc multiplied by 0.20288 tsp/cc).This means 1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder contains 5.8 to 12.1 mg of coumarin, which may be above the Tolerable Daily Intake for smaller individuals. However, it is important to note that the Germany has only cautions against high daily intakes of foods containing coumarin. Coumarin is often found in tobacco and artificial vanilla substitutes. Coumarin was banned as a food additive in the United States in 1954.Coumarin was banned as an adulterant in cigarettes by tobacco companies in 1997.Coumarin is currently listed by FDA among "Substances Generally Prohibited From Direct Addition or Use as Human Food"

I've been on a fitness regimen for a couple years and became interested in cinnamon because of Tim Ferriss' book The 4-Hour Body: An Uncommon Guide to Rapid Fat-Loss, Incredible Sex, and Becoming Superhuman.On pages 144-145 Tim recommends Saigon cinnamon, followed by Cassia *because* they contain the highest amount of "coumarin", a blood thinning drug that also affects blood sugar. This can be dangerous in high doses and Tim recommends taking no more than 1.5 teaspoons per day. Note that those types of cinnamon are regulated in Europe for the same reason. For three months I used ...

This is the most delicious cinnamon I have ever tasted.There are two types of cinnamon - Cassia (Cinnamomum aromaticum, found in most supermarkets) and Ceylon ( Cinnamomum verum - also called true cinnamon). This is Organic Ceylon (True) Cinnamon which is tastier, of finer texture, and healthier than Cassia. Great for flavoring tea, yogurt, etc. or for medicinal anti-inflammatory treatment. This is three 2 ounce packages - but is also offered in one six ounce package. Amazon should stock this item! 10 of 11 people found the following review helpful True Cinnamon, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Indus Organic Ceylon Cinnamon Powder Spice Pack, 1 Lb Jar, Premium Grade, Freshly Packed (Grocery) I received the Real Cinnamon today! It is really great. It has a sweet aroma and a noticeably better and milder flavor than the cassia variety. I ordered this variety for health reasons although I will use it in cooking as well. Cinnamon is known to have therapeutic properties and can act as an anti-inflammatory. My acupuncturist has recommended that I take 1 tsp 2 x's a day withhoney (I'm taking it with agave nectar). I have read that this variety of cinnamon (True Cinnamon) is much safer to take for these purposes and is a superior product from what is sold at the local super markets. I am extremely pleased with the products quality. Indus Organics delivered the cinnamon in a timely manner as well. I will most likely order this product from them again. |
