It has been used for centuries as a spice with unique properties and was first documented by the ancient Egyptians in 2000 B.C.

Throughout history, it has been used to support a wide range of issues and was highly valued in ancient Rome and China.

It was even used as a currency at one point! Today, cinnamon powder continues to be used in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) and as a flavoring agent in various dishes, from sweet desserts to savory main courses.
