December's essential oil of the month is disguised under the name "Cassia" but you many as well call it Cinnamon. It is widely used as cinnamon, at least in the U.S. It comes from a plant and has a stronger flavor than true cinnamon (Ceylon Cinnamon), which is the bark of a tree. Cassia contains more coumarin than cinnamon, which can be taxing on your liver. Otherwise, it carries the same properties, some in higher concentrations than cinnamon, hence it's widespread use as a "cinnamon oil". It is known to be anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial.* It has become a very popular natural supplement for diabetes treatment and is being used to reduce cholesterol as well, based on some very compelling evidence from ongoing studies. It is also being studied for use in cancer treatment and prevention. 
Cassia has a strong, spicy aroma that can be
used in small quantities to transform any essential oil blend. Cassia has been
used for thousands of years to maintain physical health and promote
well-being.* Due to its caustic nature, Cassia should be diluted with dōTERRA
Fractionated Coconut Oil when applied to the skin. It is a great oil to diffuse
during cold months for its warming properties and uplifting scent. • Add one drop to citrus blends or diffuse with Clove and Ginger during fall and winter.
• Can be used in cooking either as a replacement for Cinnamon in pies and breads or by itself in a myriad of entrees and desserts.
• Combine one to two drops along with Lemon in a glass of water to aid digestion or ward off hunger cravings.*
