What is the difference between Ceylon Cinnamon and Regular Cinnamon?
Ceylon cinnamon has a more sweet flavour and delicate aroma as compared to Cassia cinnamon. But, the most significant difference is the presence of the plant coumarin, which is a natural chemical that functions as a blood thinner.
Cassia cinnamon contains very high amounts (about 0.4-0.8 %) of coumarin which carry the risk of causing liver damage in those who are sensitive, which is the reason why certain European countries have prohibited the Cassia variety.
