Using a scale 0 (no pain) – 10 (extreme pain and stiffness).
Starting pain level 2 months ago at 7 – 8.
After 8 weeks on cinnamon, pain and stiffness levels are at 2 – 3.
I am noticing I have more flexibility and less stiffness.
Is this “Cinnamon Cure” worth doing? Yes! Everyone with arthritis should try this home remedy. However, some people with certain underlying health issues should use caution when trying this.
I am going to continue taking cinnamon to see how far I can push this.

Here is the science behind why it works.
Cinnamon Has Anti-Inflammatory Properties
Cinnamon is good for helping to reduce inflammation in your body due to the compound cinnamaldehyde.
A study published in the journal Food & Function found that Ceylon cinnamon and Cassia cinnamon are one of the most important anti-inflammatory foods. Cinnamon extracts contain cinnamaldehyde which can help treat age-related inflammatory conditions. (9)
Lab studies have shown that compounds in cassia cinnamon help to lower inflammatory markers in the blood. Scientists concluded that cinnamon extract has potential use in natural health products due to its excellent anti-inflammatory properties. (10)
Cinnamon Consumption Improves Clinical Symptoms and Inflammatory Markers in Women With Rheumatoid Arthritis

Abstract
Objective: This study evaluated the effect of cinnamon on disease activity, serum levels of some inflammatory markers, and cardiovascular risk factors in women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Methods: In this randomized double-blind clinical trial, 36 women with RA were randomly divided to 2 groups, receiving 4 capsules of either 500 mg cinnamon powder or placebo daily for 8 weeks. Fasting blood sugar (FBS), lipid profile, liver enzymes, serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), blood pressure, and clinical symptoms were determined at baseline and end of the week 8.
Results: At the end of the study, there was a significant decrease of serum levels of CRP (p < 0.001) and TNF-α (p < 0.001) in the cinnamon group as compared to the placebo group. Diastolic blood pressure was also significantly lower in the intervention group compared with the control group (p = 0.017). Compared with placebo, cinnamon intake significantly reduced the Disease Activity Score (DAS-28) (p < 0.001), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) (p < 0.001), and tender (TJC) (p < 0.001) and swollen joints (SJC) (p < 0.001) counts. No significant changes were observed for FBS, lipid profile, liver enzymes, or ESR.
Conclusion: Cinnamon supplementation can be a safe and potential adjunct treatment to improve inflammation and clinical symptoms in patients with RA.

Arthritis patients should take, twice a day (morning and night), a cup of hot water with two tablespoons of honey and one teaspoon of cinnamon powder. When taken regularly, even chronic arthritis can be cured.
A research at the Copenhagen University observed doctors treating their patients with a mixture of 1 tbsp honey and 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder before breakfast. Within a week, out of the 200 people treated, 73 patients were totally relieved of pain; within a month, almost all the patients who could not walk or move around because of arthritis started walking without pain. Arthritis patients should take, twice a day (morning and night), a cup of hot water with two tablespoons of honey and one teaspoon of cinnamon powder. When taken regularly, even chronic arthritis can be cured.
I've been taking Ceylon cinnamon (sticks ground into a powder using my coffee grinder). I've been at it now for 2 1/2 weeks and I can tell a difference. My joints are not as stiff. I plan on doing this for a full 6 weeks and I'll report back with results.
