How do you use stick cinnamon?
Are you talking medical uses or regular uses? Regular uses
include putting cinammon sticks in coffee or hot cocoa for flavor,
grinding it for other food uses, etc. For lowering blood sugar be
careful what type of cinnamon you use or take. Cassia Cinnamon,
which is identifiable by the cinnamon stick being rolled from one
end to the other and is not good to take too much of in capsules or
otherwise for bloodsugar or as a supplement because it contains
quite of bit of a blood thinner named Coumadin and can create other
complications when taking it.
If you want to use cinnamon, use Ceylon cinnamon, which is
milder, and contains very little coumadin so it is much safer. It
is identified in comparison to the Cassia Cinnamon by the stick
being curled with the two sides curling inward.
