Organic Ceylon Cinnamon Powder

Our Organic Ceylon Cinnamon Powder hails from Sri Lanka and is prized for its delicate fragrance and natural subtly sweet flavor. Ceylon cinnamon has been treasured for centuries in Ayurvedic and traditional medicine for its soothing and restorative properties. At the heart of cinnamon lies cinnamaldehyde — the natural compound responsible for its distinctive aroma and many of its health benefits. Cinnamaldehyde and other polyphenols are widely studied for their potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, helping the body combat oxidative stress and support metabolic balance. There are various grades of Ceylon cinnamon available, and Nature’s Superfoods has chosen a premium grade for its mildly sweet notes and comforting aroma. This fine powder makes a delightful and versatile addition to teas, lattes, desserts, bakes, curries, and daily wellness routines.

Ceylon vs. Cassia: Ceylon Cinnamon, often called “true cinnamon,” is considered a superior and purer variety compared to the more common and inexpensive Cassia cinnamon. Its rarity, delicately sweet flavor, and fine fragrance distinguish it from Cassia, which is sharper and more pungent. Importantly, Ceylon cinnamon contains much lower levels of coumarin — a natural compound that, in high amounts as found in Cassia, may pose health risks such as blood thinning and liver toxicity. This makes Ceylon cinnamon the safer choice for regular consumption, especially for those seeking both flavor and wellness benefits.

The Story of Ceylon Cinnamon

Tradition: Revered as the “true cinnamon,” Ceylon cinnamon has been cultivated in Sri Lanka for centuries. Traditionally, it has been used as a warming, digestive, and immune‑supporting spice across Ayurveda, TCM, and Sri Lankan folk medicine.

Science: Modern research validates cinnamon’s traditional reputation. With cinnamaldehyde and polyphenols as its active compounds, Ceylon cinnamon supports blood sugar balance, heart health, digestive wellness, and immune resilience. Its low coumarin content makes it especially safe for daily use, as compared to Cassia cinnamon.
