Cinnamon oil is distilled from the bark of a tropical evergreen tree native to Sri Lanka. The oil is a dark liquid with a sweet, warm-spicy, dry powerful aroma. Cinnamon essential oil has traditionally been used for fast relief of infections of the bladder and the digestive tract, as well as enzymatic deficiency in the gut. Cinnamon essential oil is highly anti-microbial and anti-bacterial for a great diversity of infectious bacteria. Studies have shown the strength of cinnamon bark oil to eliminate many forms of pathogenic organisms. Cinnamon oil has an extremely high antioxidant capacity, second only to clove oil. Some do take very small amounts internally for this and it's anti-microbial effects. The oil should not be inhaled directly from a diffuser however, as may irritate the nasal membranes. The oil may also be beneficial for improving circulation and supporting the immune system through viral and bacterial infections. The wonderfully rich aroma is also used as a sexual stimulant, though it should not be used externally on sensitive skin (except in highly dilute concentrations - and then never on sensitive areas); due to its powerful nature a diffuser would be best to experience this effect. Otherwise, dilute 1:50 in a carrier oil before application. Additionally, the aroma is though to attract abundance, and is often used with Patchouli oil for this esoteric application.
