Cinnamomum Cassia Blume Oil

Guaranteed 100% natural product

Cassia oil is an essential oil extracted from the bark of the Cinnamomum cassia tree, also known as Chinese cinnamon. While cassia and cinnamon are closely related and share similar properties, they come from different species of the Cinnamomum genus. Cassia is native to China and is widely cultivated in other parts of Asia.

The oil is obtained through steam distillation of the dried bark, resulting in a highly aromatic and concentrated liquid with a warm, spicy, and sweet aroma similar to cinnamon.

Here are some common uses and benefits of cassia oil:

Aromatherapy: Cassia oil is prized for its warm and comforting aroma, making it a popular choice for aromatherapy. Diffusing cassia oil in a room can help create a cozy atmosphere, promote relaxation, and uplift the mood. It is often used during the fall and winter seasons for its festive scent.

Antimicrobial properties: Cassia oil has strong antimicrobial properties due to its high content of cinnamaldehyde and other compounds. It can help inhibit the growth of bacteria, fungi, and viruses, making it useful for disinfecting surfaces, purifying the air, and supporting immune health.

Digestive health: Cassia oil is believed to have digestive benefits and can help alleviate symptoms of indigestion, bloating, gas, and stomach upset. It can help stimulate digestion, reduce nausea, and soothe stomach discomfort when diluted and massaged onto the abdomen or added to a warm cup of tea.

Pain relief: Cassia oil has analgesic properties that can help relieve muscle aches and pains, joint pain, headaches, and menstrual cramps. It can be diluted with a carrier oil and applied topically to affected areas for soothing relief.

Flavoring agent: Cassia oil is commonly used as a flavoring agent in culinary applications. It adds a warm, spicy flavor to dishes such as baked goods, desserts, beverages, and savory dishes. Cassia oil can also be added to teas, coffees, and cocktails for extra flavor.
