Cumarins are a class of organic compounds found in many plants, known for their pleasant fragrance. They are often used in perfumes, cosmetics, and flavorings. Cumarins can be extracted from various sources, including cinnamon, tonka beans, and sweet clover. In addition to their aromatic properties, cumarins have been studied for their potential health benefits. Some research suggests that they may possess anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticoagulant properties. However, excessive consumption of certain cumarins, like those found in cinnamon, can be harmful due to their toxicity in high doses.
