How to Take Cinnamon Leaf Oil

Cinnamon leaf oil is extracted from the leaf of the cinnamon tree, which grows in Sri Lanka, India and Madagascar. While it is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry, dentistry, food and perfumery, it is perhaps best known for its curative properties and its presence in traditional folk medicine. Cinnamon leaf oil is believed to help flu as well as the common cold, rheumatism, warts and viral infections. Of course, these claims have not been verified by the FDA, but try it for yourself.
