How Much Cinnamon Tea and When?

According to the US Department of Health, it’s safe to consume small amounts of cinnamon every day. If you have specific dietary restrictions, like diabetes or allergies, you should be more cautious about using larger amounts of cinnamon or concentrated cinnamon oil.

Enjoying a cup or two of cinnamon tea a day is perfectly safe.

It’s caffeine-free, so you can have it in the morning, as an afternoon treat, or even at night. If you have trouble sleeping when you drink it at night, just enjoy it earlier in the day.

Ask Your Doctor — Is Cinnamon Tea Good for YOU?

For many people, cinnamon tea is a delicious and safe healthy treat. BUT it does contain a compound that can be toxic at very high doses.

Talk to your doctor about drinking cinnamon tea if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, have a heart condition, ulcers or are taking antibiotics.
