1. Cinnamon: antibacterial , antiviral and anti-fungal. Increases blood flow improving circulation, reduces nausea, stops vomiting, relieves stomach upset, bloating, gas and indigestion, relieves sore throat, reduces cold symptoms and warms the body when suffering from chills. It has compounds that provide anticoagulant effects, but remember that blood clots are a serious (sometimes fatal) condition, and I recommend you to not use herbal remedies without consulting with your doctor first. It’s anti-inflammatory properties are useful for arthritis and other conditions fueled by inflammation. Helps lower blood sugar, because it contains a water soluble polyphenol compound called MHCP that improves how the body uses insulin. The antioxidants present in cinnamon stimulate the immune system and fights off the damage caused by free radicals. It’s aroma stimulates brain activity, resulting in increased cognitive ability, memory and alertness.
