The inner bark of several other Cinnamomum species is also used to make cinnamon, but 

Cinnamomum verum has a subtler flavor that makes it preferred for certain recipes. 

Cinnamomum verum is also an excellent health booster, due to its components that serve as protection against some chronic health conditions.[4]

Key Health Benefits

 

How much Ceylon cinnamon should I take a day?

When taken by mouth: Ceylon cinnamon is commonly consumed in foods. It is possibly safe when used as a medicine. It has been safely used in doses of 0.5-3 grams daily for up to 6 months

Is Ceylon cinnamon better than regular cinnamon?

Both Ceylon and cassia are healthy and delicious. However, if you intend to consume large amounts of this spice or take a supplement, cassia can be harmful because of the Coumarin content. At the end of the day, Ceylon cinnamon is better quality and much safer.

It’s probably best not to exceed 0.5–1 grams of Cassia daily, but taking up to 1.2 teaspoons (6 grams) daily of Ceylon cinnamon should be safe.
