Overview
Carlson's Ceylon cinnamon capsules pack 500 mg of cinnamon extract per capsule, 90 to a bottle, made gluten free. Ceylon cinnamon is the true cinnamon variety, distinct from the cassia cinnamon found in most grocery store spice jars.
The extract format standardizes each dose to 500 mg, harder to control when measuring loose ground cinnamon. Ceylon cinnamon is generally lower in coumarin than cassia, a distinction some buyers look for when taking cinnamon capsules regularly rather than as an occasional spice.
- 500 mg Ceylon cinnamon extract per capsule
- 90 capsules per bottle
- Gluten free
- True cinnamon variety, not cassia
Who it's for
For people who want cinnamon in capsule form rather than stirred into food or coffee, and who specifically want Ceylon rather than cassia. Not needed by anyone happy using ground cinnamon from the spice aisle.
Pros and cons
- 500 mg standardized dose per capsule
- Uses Ceylon cinnamon rather than cassia
- Capsule only, not useful for cooking
Performance notes
Capsules remove the guesswork of measuring cinnamon by volume, since each one is fixed at 500 mg of extract. The Ceylon designation matters mainly for buyers avoiding cassia's higher coumarin content over regular, ongoing use.
