About Tsp cinimon
Cinnamon, a fragrant spice derived from the inner bark of trees in the Cinnamomum genus, is known for its warm, slightly sweet flavor and versatile use in global cuisines. Originating from regions like Sri Lanka, India, and Egypt, cinnamon has been cherished for centuries as a culinary ingredient and traditional remedy. A teaspoon of ground cinnamon contains minimal calories, no fat, and a small amount of dietary fiber, along with manganese and antioxidants. Recognized for its potential anti-inflammatory and blood sugar-regulating properties, cinnamon is often linked to heart and metabolic health. However, excessive consumption, particularly of cassia cinnamon, may pose risks due to its coumarin content, which can affect liver health. As a nutrient-rich spice, cinnamon adds flavor and light sweetness to dishes without relying on added sugars, making it a healthier choice for enhancing meals and beverages.
