The Health Benefits of Cinnamon
By Umar Sallau, MD | November 11, 2022
Herbs are mentioned in Ar-Rahman as part of what Allah provided us from His bounty for our nourishment out of pure mercy (Qur'an 55:12). An-najm, which is referenced in verse 6, may refer to a star if related to the word Al-qamar (the moon), but it may also refer to a plant if connected to the word Ashajar (the next word, which refers to a tree).
Imam As-Suyuti mentions cinnamon and some of its benefits in his book Prophetic Medicine. Since ancient times, traditional practices have valued cinnamon. Research suggests that cinnamon may help support healthy blood sugar levels already within the normal range as part of a balanced diet.
Cinnamon extract has been studied for its role in supporting healthy insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism, and it fits easily into a balanced diet and active lifestyle.
