Cinnamon is not the only spice with gut-cooling properties. According to Ayurveda (ancient [mostly Indian] healing and preventative medical science) coriander, cumin and some other spices are also cooling agents.

I have a cinnamon roll in the fridge. I’ll test out the theory right now.

I’ll stay with my Prilosec. It’s my sanity pill.

These "discoveries" USED to always start with "British scientists say..."

Cinnamon...big deal.
There have ALWAYS and ALWAYS been smart folks around, geniuses too, who figured out good herbs and spices THOUSANDS of years ago.

Another use for cinnamon is quitting smoking. When you get the urge to smoke just grab a cinnamon stick instead, it was a big help to me.

Very much cinnamon raises my blood pressure and I get real hot and sweaty.

This morning on TV they said Tumeric was the cure all for everything.

Cinnamon has antibiotic properties and also helps moderate your insulin response when you eat. I take it multiple times a day.

The study’s conclusions are abject BS and do nothing but outline how backwards western medicine really is in regards to understanding the chemical signaling that triggers gastric acid production (let alone the rest of the enteric nervous system). Cinnamon has no effect on the stomach; its beneficial effect is in the colon.

Btw, if you’re taking prilosec, you’re worsening your health on the basis of lousy medical research.
