Cinnamomum zeylanicum (cinnamon) has a wide range of beneficial effects including mild glucose lowering activity. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether cinnamon bark extract has the potential to improve memory performance and glucose profiles in diabetic mice. Memory was assessed by the novel object recognition task in male Balb/c mice. In this method, the difference between e...

The activity of Cinnamomum zeylanicum Nees essential oil (cinnamon oil) against Paenibacillus larvae (Withe) was evaluated in the laboratory and in a field experiment in order to improve the biological control of the Apis mellifera L. disease American foulbrood (AFB). The MICs (Minimal Inhibitory Concentration) against P. larvae were determined by the tube dilution method. Bee lethality was est...

The long–term effects of Cinnamomum zeylanicum Blume oil on some physiological parameters were investigated in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic and non-diabetic male Wistar rats. STZ-induced diabetic rats showed significant increases in the levels of blood glucose, triglycerides, cholesterol, low density lipoprotein LDL-cholesterol, urea, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminot...

INTRODUCTION Cinnamon is currently marketed as a remedy for obesity, glucose intolerance, diabetes mellitus and dyslipidaemia. Integrative medicine is a new concept that combines conventional treatment with evidence-based complementary therapies. AIM The aim of this review is to critically evaluate the experimental evidence available for cinnamon in improving glycaemic targets in animal model...

Four essential oils in two concentrations (50 and 100%) of thyme, Thymus vulgaris; Cinnamon, Cinnamomum zeylanicum; Lemon grass, Cymbopagon flexuosus; Anise, Pimpinella anisum and formic acid (65%) were used against varroa mite, Varroa destructor infesting honey bee colonies. Results show that, formic acid and the highest concentration (100%) of tested essential oils caused effective control of...

Antibacterial activity of 19 essential oils was screened against four test bacteria namely Pseudomonas aeruginosa NCIM 5029, Staphylococcus aureus NCIM 5021, Salmonella typhimurium NCIM 2501 and Bacillus subtilis NCIM 2063. Varying degree of antibacterial activity was recorded with the highest being depicted by Cinnamomum zeylanicum followed by Cymbopogon ciatrus and Carum copticum, against all...

BACKGROUND Cinnamon has been shown to delay gastric emptying of a high-carbohydrate meal and reduce postprandial glycemia in healthy adults. However, it is dietary fat which is implicated in the etiology and is associated with obesity, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. We aimed to determine the effect of 3 g cinnamon (Cinnamomum zeylanicum) on GE, postprandial lipemic and glycemic res...

BACKGROUND Lipid oxidation is the main deterioration process that occurs in vegetable oils. This process was effectively prevented by natural antioxidants. Cinnamomum zeylanicum (Cinnamon) is rich with antioxidants. The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of cinnamon on malondialdehyde (MDA) rate production in two high consumption oils in Iranian market. METHODS Chemical compos...
