Cinnamon is a spice obtained from the inner bark of several trees from the genus Cinnamomum that is used in savoury foods. Cinnamon is good for your health. For example, one teaspoon of cinnamon packs as much antioxidant potency as a half cup of blueberries, and cinnamon's natural antimicrobial properties have been shown to fight strains of E. coli.
Also, while technically not sweet, 'sweet spices' like cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger have been shown to boost satiety and mimic sweetness, which allows you to cut back on sugar in nearly anything, from your morning cup of joe to a batch of homemade muffins.
