Cinnamon Leaf Essential Oil, 4 fl oz

Rich in color and smell, a powerful, deliciously agreeable spicy oil with warming and stimulating properties. Excellent for exhaustion, weakness and muscular aches, particularly resulting from flu. Particularly good for the elderly during winter for prevention as well as speedy recovery. Useful for coughs and colds and correcting imbalances resulting in flatulence, diarrhoea, colic and sluggish digestion.

Cinnamon leaf oil possesses the delicate aroma of the spice and a sweet and pungent taste. Cassia, or Chinese cinnamon, is the spice sold as cinnamon in the United States. Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamomum zeylanicum) is equally popular worldwide. The two are similar in taste, though Ceylon cinnamon has a sweeter, more delicate flavor.

This oil, Cinnamomum zeylanicum leaf oil, is less irritating to the skin than Cinnamomum cassia bark oil, but both should be handled with care.
