Health-promoting effects of cinnamon presented by our Gletscher Hotel Tux Hintertux
Cinnamon… an underestimated fat burner & diabetes killer

The tropical cinnamon tree has an aromatic bark, which is removed from the tree during the harvesting process and then dried.
The cinnamon sticks are then traded whole or in powder form. To experience an unforgettable aromatic aroma, we recommend buying the cinnamon sticks whole and grating them fresh as needed. Preferably, these should come from Indonesia – our absolute favorite cinnamon!

In addition to the incomparable aroma, which is particularly popular in our latitudes during the Christmas season, cinnamon also impresses with its health-promoting effects, which are due to a variety of different substances in cinnamon.
The health-promoting effect of cinnamon is scientifically proven. This occurs after a daily consumption of approx. ½ teaspoon of cinnamon after just 40 days.

We at the Kössler, the Gletscher Hotel Tux Hintertux, have put together the following for you:

  • Lowering cholesterol and blood sugar levels
    The polyphenol MHCP is one of the substances in cinnamon that acts directly on the insulin receptors. This lowers blood sugar & insulin levels.
    The fat reserves of the fat cells are also released. This also lowers the body fat percentage.
    Therefore, cinnamon is considered both a diabetes killer and a fat burner.

 

  • Fat burner:
    Cinnamon also boosts the metabolism and thus supports weight loss:
    Cinnamon leads to a kind of heat development in the body, which is why energy and calories are consumed to a greater extent.

 

  • Due to the high content of secondary plant compounds in cinnamon, it is used for cancer prevention.

 

  • It also promotes cognitive brain performance and the ability to concentrate.

 

Tip from our Gletscher Hotel Tux Hintertux for the correct storage of cinnamon:

Cinnamon should be stored in a dark, well-sealed and dry place so that the spicy aroma of the cinnamon is preserved and the cinnamon can develop its health-promoting effect.

We at the Gletscher Hotel Tux Hintertux wish you a cinnamon-rich day!
