Cinnamomun cassia (Vietnam)
Known as Chinese cinnamon, Cassia is highly antibacterial and antiviral due to its key constituent, cinnamaldehyde, which inhibits bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Like other spice oils, Cassia aids digestion by stimulating digestive enzymes and relieving nausea, bloating, and constipation. It also boosts circulation, warming extremities and supporting cardiovascular health, which can help ease symptoms of arthritis and rheumatism. Cassia combats fatigue and supports overall immune resilience.
Culturally and spiritually, Cassia was used in rituals to release negative energies and shield against psychic attacks. It aids those who struggle with self-acceptance and promotes inner strength. Cassia was part of the Holy Anointing Oil gifted to Moses and is mentioned throughout sacred texts.
This is a hot oil; always perform a patch test before applying, or use it on the soles of your feet if you have sensitive skin.
