Cinnamon

Cinnamon is a popular spice derived from the bark of specific trees belonging to the genus Cinnamomum. It has a warm, sweet flavor and is commonly used in cooking and baking, especially in desserts, curries, and beverages. Beyond its culinary uses, cinnamon is known for its potential health benefits, including antioxidant properties and its ability to help regulate blood sugar levels. It comes in several forms, with Ceylon cinnamon often considered the "true" variety, while Cassia cinnamon is more widely available. Both types are enjoyed for their unique taste and aromatic qualities.
