Cinnamon Oil: Your Slimming Ally

Did you know that cinnamon oil is said to be one of the best natural slimming allies? It is said to contribute to gradual weight loss, while taking care of your health. This oil has been used for millennia by traditional medicine, with a reputation for its ability to help eliminate accumulated fat, particularly around the abdomen.

Cinnamon oil, an ally for health

According to some studies, this oil is said to have proved effective for weight loss and for eliminating certain bacteria. It is also said to help support the brain and memory, and to be a good stimulant for the immune system.

Making cinnamon oil at home

Ingredients

  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Several cinnamon sticks

Preparation

  1. Fill a small glass bottle that seals airtight with cinnamon sticks.
  2. Pour the olive oil into the bottle until the sticks are completely submerged.
  3. Place the jar in a warm spot and shake the bottle every day for three weeks.
  4. After three weeks, remove the sticks and filter the oil through a piece of gauze.

How to use it

Adding two drops of cinnamon oil to each meal is said to be enough to support fat burning and the beginning of weight loss. It is also said to lower blood sugar levels, which would make it potentially useful for people with diabetes — a doctor's opinion nevertheless remains essential before any regular use, particularly if a treatment is already under way.

Three weeks of maceration, two drops per meal: a simple preparation, but one that calls for a doctor's opinion before any regular use, particularly for people with diabetes.
