From Our Reading and/or Experience...

• Cinnamon Bark is among the most antiseptic essential oils. It has been produced in Sri Lanka for over 2,000 years.
• May be applied neat (undiluted) on hands and bottoms of feet. We use it this way as soon as any of us feels we are coming down with something.
• May be added to food as a dietary supplement or as a wonderful cinnamon flavoring agent.
• It can be diffused to add the cinnamon scent throughout an area, and to reap some of it's many benefits.
• Because of its high phenol content, it is best diluted (1 drop to 40 or 50 drops of V-6 Mixing Oil or any other quality oil, such as extra-virgin olive oil) before apply on the skin. If the mixture is too hot, apply additional diluting oil.
• Frequently Asked Questions about essential oils.
