10 Benefits of Cinnamon
Cinnamon Benefit #5: Anti-Inflammatory
Swelling and inflammations can be the cause of considerable pain, and they can also potentially lead to some quite serious complications. These inflammations can be a result of numerous complications and are quite prevalent in elderly people. The antioxidants that are contained within cinnamon, however, help to reduce such inflammations.
Cinnamon contains at least 7 flavonoid compounds which help to reduce swelling and inflammation. In the short term, this helps to alleviate pain and other symptoms of swelling. Reducing these swellings can help reduce pain significantly, making life more bearable even if only the symptoms are being addressed.
