What's the difference between Ceylon cinnamon and the cinnamon in ordinary supplements?
Almost all of them use Cassia, which is rich in coumarin, a substance that builds up and can strain the liver with regular use. Ceylon from Sri Lanka is practically free from it: it's the right choice for full-dose daily use.
How does it compare with the cinnamon capsules from the pharmacy?
At the pharmacy you almost always find low-dose Cassia in a basic capsule. Here it's a 12:1 Ceylon extract carried in MCT oil: each softgel provides the equivalent of 7,200 mg of raw bark, in a form the body really absorbs.
Can I take it with my medication?
Most people tolerate it well, but if you already manage your blood sugar with medication or take anticoagulants, talk to your doctor before you start. Not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Does it have a strong taste or leave an aftertaste?
No. The extract is sealed inside the softgel, so you don't taste it, either in your mouth or afterwards. No gritty powder, no cinnamon repeating on you hours later.
When will I notice a difference?
Energy and balance tend to show first, usually within the first 2-4 weeks. Blood sugar support takes at least 6-8 weeks to become measurable.
How many should I take a day?
Just one softgel, with a meal. One pack lasts a whole month.
