Cinnamon
Cinnamomum verum
Cinnamon is a spice rich in fibre and antioxidants, so it provides the human body with several benefits such as stimulating the body or fighting various digestive problems.
It contributes to bone growth and cholesterol prevention.
In Europe and North America, cinnamon is often used in sweet preparations, but in North Africa and in the East, it is cooked with meat.
Its flavour is also used in sweets and teas.
