Like I said Fausty, I have never tried that.
I do put a half teaspoon of powdered cinnamon in my cinnamon/clove tea at bedtime. It warms my tummy and throat, but does not give me heartburn.
I don't know about y'all, but my mom made cinnamon toothpicks for me to chew on/ suck on growing up. They were soaked in essential cinnamon oil overnight and then she let them air dry. My brother and I then chewed them for days. They burned your mouth like a son of a biatch, but it was a good burn<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
I have never just done the cinnamon drops on their own.</end quote></div>
Yeah the cinnamon toothpicks in school is what made me remember how hardcore that essential oil to the mouth. I would actually get chemical blisters around the edges of my lips from chewing on those too long. Next time you go to a health food store get a small dab of the stuff and touch it to your tongue. You will light up. I'd love to take the stuff because I agree essential oil is always stronger than something like pills that you have to digest, but holy cow.
