Honey and Cinnamon - Magic Mixture



The combination of honey and cinnamon has been used for centuries in both traditional Chinese and Ayurveda, a system of healing founded 5000 years ago in India. The two
ingredients with unique healing abilities have a long history as a home remedy. Cinnamon is one of the oldest spices known to mankind and honey's popularity has continued throughout history. Cinnamon's essential oils and honey's enzyme that produces hydrogen peroxide qualify the two "anti-microbial" foods with the ability to help stop the growth of bacteria as well as fungi. Both are used not just as a beverage flavoring and medicine, but also as an embalming agent and are used as alternatives to traditional food preservatives due to their effective antimicrobial properties.
The mixture of honey and cinnamon has many benefits and can cure multiple diseases.

Weight Loss. If taken regularly, it can help reduce weight in even the most obese people.
Thirty minutes before breakfast on an empty stomach every morning and at night before sleeping, drink cinnamon and honey powder boiled in one cup water to lose weight quickly.
Also, drinking this regularly stops fat from accumulating in the body even if you’re on a high-calorie diet.

For Arthritis
Make A Paste
Add a tsp of cinnamon powder to one part honey and two parts of lukewarm water. Make a paste and massage it on the itching part of the body slowly. You will notice that the pain recedes within a minute or two.

Make A Drink
Mix 1 cup of hot water with 2 tsp of honey and 1 tsp of cinnamon powder. Drink regularly, every morning and night, for complete relief from arthritis pain. This can also be used for chronic arthritis relief.
A research at the Copenhagen University observed doctors treating their patients with a mixture of 1 tbsp honey and 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder before breakfast. Within a week, out of the 200 people treated, 73 patients were totally relieved of pain; within a month, almost all the patients who could not walk or move around because of arthritis started walking without pain.

Cold and Cough. Those suffering from common or severe colds should take 1 tbsp lukewarm honey with 1/4 tsp cinnamon powder daily for 3 days. This will cure the most chronic cough and cold and clear the sinuses.
The anti-bacterial, anti-viral, and anti-microbial properties in honey help here. Cinnamon is also beneficial because of its anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and antioxidant properties. Look here for another great cough cure.



Infertility. Since ancient times, it is commonly known that honey strengthens semen. Regularly taking 2 tbsp of honey before sleeping can help resolve impotency issues.
In China, Japan and Far-East countries, women who do not conceive and wish to strengthen the uterus take cinnamon powder. In such cases, you should take a pinch of cinnamon powder in 1/2 tsp of honey and apply it on the gums frequently throughout the day so that it slowly mixes with the saliva and enters the body.
Polycstic ovary syndrome can also be cured by using cinnamon daily, which will help jump start a woman’s period/cycle and promote fertility.

 Note: Once pregnant, you should not take cinnamon because it stimulates premature labor and uterine contractions.

Heart Disease. Make a paste of honey and cinnamon powder, apply it on bread and eat it regularly for breakfast. This reduces the cholesterol in the arteries and saves the patient from heart attack.
Also, those who have already had an attack can use it daily to keep away from further attacks. Regular use relieves loss of breath and strengthens the heartbeat.
You can also drink cinnamon tea with a teaspoon of honey every day half an hour before breakfast. To make cinnamon tea, steep some non-flavored green tea and add a pinch of freshly ground cinnamon powder to it. Strain the tea and drink it while it’s hot.

Immune System. Daily use of honey and cinnamon powder in your diet strengthens the immune system and protects the body from bacterial and viral attacks. Constant use of honey strengthens the white blood corpuscles to fight bacterial and viral diseases.
Mix ¼ tsp cinnamon powder with 1 tbsp honey. Drink it on a daily basis.
Also, 500mg of cinnamon supplements twice daily for 90 days can improve hemoglobin A1C levels in those with type-2 diabetes.

Ulcers and Stomach Pain. When honey is combined with cinnamon it can efficiently treat stomach ache. Consume both ingredients on regular basis to treat ulcers.

Hair Loss. If you’re having problems with hair loss, mix a teaspoon of olive oil, a tablespoon of honey, and one teaspoon of cinnamon powder. Apply the mixture on your scalp and let it sit for 15 minutes. Results will kick in after a short period of time.

Cancer. According to recent studies, honey and cinnamon mixture can help in the treatment of stomach cancer. Patients who suffer from this type of cancer should consume only a tablespoon of honey with a spoonful of cinnamon powder. Consume this mixture on daily basis for 3 months straight.
