Your feedback
Good for you

As a culinary spice, it adds flavor with negligible purines. Early animal studies suggest its compounds may help lower uric acid and reduce inflammation.

Bad for you

Clinical evidence in humans is too weak to support therapeutic use. Large amounts of honey-sweetened cinnamon could add problematic fructose. Concentrated supplements may interact with medications.
