Cinnamon powder is a spice made from the inner bark of trees belonging to the genus Cinnamomum. It is commonly used in cooking and baking for its warm, sweet flavor. Cinnamon is available in two main types: Ceylon cinnamon, known as "true cinnamon," and Cassia cinnamon, which is more widely used and has a stronger taste. In addition to its culinary uses, cinnamon powder has been valued for its potential health benefits. It contains antioxidants and may help regulate blood sugar levels. Many people also use it in herbal remedies and traditional medicine for its anti-inflammatory properties.
