Cinnamon Benefits for Women: It might be a powerful antibacterial ingredient that can ward off bacteria, but that’s not the only way it benefits women. One study showed that cinnamon can target some menstrual symptoms, such as PMS and dysmenorrhea, making them more tolerable.

Cinnamon Benefits for Hair and Dandruff: The dermatologist recommends using cinnamon in hair oil. It contains cinnamaldehyde that dilates blood vessels, boosts blood flow to the scalp, and gives you lustrous hair. It also contains antifungal properties that help protect the scalp and hair from free radical damage and inflammation and prevent dandruff. When applied to the scalp, cinnamon may stimulate circulation. This could encourage hair growth and reduce hair loss. It also has antifungal properties, which might help treat dandruff caused by Malassezia, a type of fungus. Cinnamon can’t dye or lighten your hair, though.
