Fighting fungus
The antibacterial property of cinnamon allows it to be used to combat fungal infections on the feet.
To do this, bring a liter of water to a boil, into which you need to put 10 cinnamon sticks.
When the water has cooled to a comfortable temperature, you need to keep your feet in it for 15-20 minutes.
Fighting Sweet Cravings
Cinnamon helps to cope with cravings for sweets. For this purpose, the spice is added to drinks and some dishes instead of sugar.
For example, a pinch of cinnamon can be added to porridge or coffee.
Hair product
You can make a hair mask from cinnamon, which contains vitamins A, B1, C, as well as iron and potassium, which stimulates blood circulation and activates hair growth.
To do this, ground cinnamon is mixed with honey in equal proportions and applied to the hair, left for 15-20 minutes, then washed off.
