Essential Oil - Ceylon Cinnamon Bark

Essential oils are super concentrated oils made from plants. Some are made from the bark, some from leaves, some from roots, others from flowers, and some are even from the skin of fruits. All of Ollie's oils are 100% pure, brought straight from farmers and distillers to you.

Product benefits

Ceylon cinnamon, or true cinnamon, as it is popularly known, originates from Sri Lanka. Dried inner bark of this tree is steam distilled or water distilled to produce oil. Unlike its more commonly available cousin Cassia, this species is contains very little naturally occuring coumarin. Cinnamon Bark Oil is considered to be of the strongest natural antibacterial agents and it also has anti-clotting properties. It reduces spasms, reduces gas and improves appetite.
