Cinnamon Bark Extract Powder Ceylon Cinnamon Powder
Cinnamon extract comes from the bark of Cassia Cinnamon by processing it in water and alcohol solution. Cinnamon polyphenols are considered as its active ingredients. Scientific research has revealed that polyphenols in cinnamon bark can help maintain the body’s ability to metabolize glucose in a healthy way. It is widely used in medicine or functional food to help diabetic people regulate blood sugar, especially in Europe and America.
Cinnamon extract has been used throughout history, and across most cultures, as a culinary spice, for herbal bath decoctions and as a food remedy to maintain healthy blood sugar balance. Cinnamon contains the constituent,cinnamaldehyde, found in the volatile oil fraction of the plant. Cinnamaldehyde has potent antioxidant actions, protecting cells from oxidative damage, and supporting healthy fat and cholesterol balance within the normal range.
Scientists at the Agricultural Research Service have found polyphenolic polymer compounds from cinnamon bark that could become natural ingredients in products aimed at lowering blood sugar levels. Recent studies demonstrate that water-soluble polymeric compounds isolated from cinnamon have insulin-enhancing biological activity in the in vitro assay measuring the insulindependent effects on glucose metabolism and also function as antioxidants. Cinnamaldehyde is the main constituent of oils of cassia, cinnamon barks and roots.
