HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Ceylon Cinnamon 1800 mg by NutriRise

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 12, 2026

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: organic Ceylon cinnamon at 1800 mg per serving. The capsule itself is made of vegetable material (an inactive ingredient that holds the cinnamon inside).

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not assessable

This is a single-ingredient Ceylon Cinnamon product and its label doesn't state a use — see Ceylon Cinnamon's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence on Ceylon cinnamon for weight loss and diabetes is rated as possibly ineffective based on the data we have. For hay fever, COPD, and the common cold, the evidence isn't established — we don't have enough reliable data to say whether it works.

If you're thinking about this for one of those conditions, that's a conversation to have with your doctor or pharmacist.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Ceylon Cinnamon

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Ceylon cinnamon from food amounts is generally well tolerated. At supplement-strength doses like the ones in this product, though, safety data is thinner.

The most common side effects from taking it by mouth are bloating, indigestion, and nausea — they're uncommon, but they do happen. Rare cases of allergic skin reactions and rashes have been reported.

One case report documents severe bleeding in a patient who took a tablespoon of cinnamon daily for 10 months before abdominal surgery, though it's not clear cinnamon alone caused it. For pregnancy, Ceylon cinnamon is rated likely safe.

For breastfeeding, the safety of supplement doses is unknown — food amounts are likely fine, but talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you want to use this product while nursing. If you have a known allergy to cinnamon or cinnamaldehyde (the main compound in cinnamon), skip it.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Ceylon Cinnamon

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Ceylon Cinnamon.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 258 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking this product, check your blood pressure medications (antihypertensive drugs) and diabetes medications (antidiabetes drugs) with the interaction tool on this page. Ceylon cinnamon may add to their effects and lower your blood pressure or blood sugar more than intended.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Ceylon cinnamon supplement is generally well tolerated, but it can lower blood pressure and blood sugar. If you take medications for either of those conditions, you need to check this product against your exact drugs before you start.

Talk with your pharmacist or doctor — especially if you're on blood pressure or diabetes medications, or if you have a cinnamon allergy.
