Does anyone ever chew cinnamon stick?

Does anyone ever chew cinnamon stick?
Why would I do that?
Short answer:- Ceylan cannelle, OK.
- No more than a tsp cannelle powder, not every day.
=> impact on liver and glycemia. - coumarine and methylhydroxychalcone (MHC)
The water-soluble polyphenol methylhydroxychalcone (MHCP) is an insulin-like substance. It works in synergy with it inside the cells to eliminate excess glucose in the blood. Rather good but it's an analog of insulin ...
If you want more details, I have Info.

Interesting. I don't know but it's nice and tingly on the teeth. Is it a good impact on liver?

Is it a good impact on liver?
Well, I won't formulate so.
cinnamon polyphenols are mighty. Powerful antibacterial as essential oil.
But too much of a good thing is bad.
Why? Impact on microflora, on insulin, liver and perhaps blood fluidity.
Not a problem if you don't overdrive.
The limit not to overdrive is between 1/4 and one tsp powder Ceylan cinnamon, provided you metabolize well (liver and kidneys). Of course, one week stop / month. -

Yeah my stomach and chest are tight after accidentally ingesting a few small pieces. Also feeling energized though. -

@LucH
Interesting. I usually only add a dash to a coffee or sweet and not daily. This was surprising. -
@LucH
The active called cinnamaldehyde is adrenergic and activates TRPA1 a heat "receptor". Cinnamaldehyde is similar in shape to amphetamine and phenethylamine, two CNS stimulants. -
@wrl now we're getting somewhere. I think I'm waiting for the irritation to subside. Going to be more careful lmao.

@Corngold you can probably guess menthol has the opposite effect!
-
Yeah, I guess menthol is cooling but I thought it was also pro-serotonin and estrogen?

@wrl funny enough Nicole had the right idea in that thread...I agree with it, I'm done with obsessing about foods but it's still interesting to think about.

The article from the Towsend Letter found different responses when the cinnamon was taken in capsules or in water.
