Experts break down why you should be eating more <\/em><em>cinnamon for your vaginal health<\/em><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<p>As the weather cools and the leaves turn hues of fiery orange, vibrant red, and bright yellow, many of us start adding a dash of spice to virtually everything we consume, including coffee (hello, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/healthy-pumpkin-spice-latte\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">pumpkin spice lattes<\/a>!), roasted root veggies, and delicious baked goods. While fall spices are good for our taste buds\u2014okay, and for our souls\u2014one spice, in particular, is uniquely beneficial for vaginal health. We\u2019re talking about warm and spicy cinnamon, of course.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cCinnamon has several health benefits, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-microbial activities, which make it a vaginal health superstar,\u201d says <a href=\"https:\/\/gainswave.com\/directory\/north-carolina\/charlotte\/signature-wellness-842-870\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Deb Matthew, MD<\/a>, a functional medicine physician, who is also known as America&#8217;s Happy Hormones Doctor. This spice actually has a host of health benefits, however, cinnamon\u2019s vaginal health benefits create the perfect excuse to sip on chai tea while enjoying a delicious Dutch apple pie.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-benefits-of-cinnamon-for-vaginal-health\">The Benefits of Cinnamon for Vaginal Health\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"cfb698\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #cfb698;\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/health-benefits-of-cinnamon.jpg\" alt=\"health benefits of cinnamon\" class=\"wp-image-31986 not-transparent\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-cinnamon-balances-the-vaginas-ph-levels\">Cinnamon Balances the Vagina\u2019s pH Levels<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>One of the most interesting health benefits of cinnamon is that it can help with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/vaginal-ph-balance\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">vaginal pH balance<\/a>. Cinnamon contains <em>Lactobacillus<\/em>, the same probiotic bacteria found in yogurt, and, according to Dr. Matthew, helps maintain an acidic pH in the vagina of around 3.8 to 5.0. \u201cIf the pH is higher (more alkaline), this allows for the overgrowth of bacteria and yeast,\u201d she explains. \u201cAn excess of yeast raises the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/vaginal-ph-balance\/\">vaginal pH<\/a>, creating a vicious cycle,\u201d she adds. Since cinnamon can help keep bacteria at bay, it helps maintain a normal vaginal acidic pH and, therefore, promotes a healthy vagina.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/specializedwomenshealth.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Michael Ingber, MD<\/a>, a board-certified physician in female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery, a premenopausal woman\u2019s average vaginal pH is around 4.0. However, it can be nearly double for those who have an overgrowth of bacteria. \u201cWomen who have bacterial vaginosis or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/natural-relief-from-menopause-symptoms\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">post-menopausal women<\/a> often have a more alkaline pH, upwards of 7.0 or even 8.0,\u201d he explains. The alkaline pH levels are because \u201ca lack of estrogen causes a thinner vaginal lining and the pH to increase,\u201d Dr. Ingber explains. \u201cThat is why we not only see an increase in urinary tract infection risk but also overactive bladder and discomfort with sexual activity in post-menopausal women,\u201d he adds.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-cinnamon-can-fight-yeast-infections\">Cinnamon Can Fight Yeast Infections<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Since cinnamon is anti-bacterial and anti-fungal, it can play a role in warding off yeast infections. \u201cCinnamon helps inhibit the growth of bacteria and candida\u2014the most common yeast implicated in vaginal yeast infections,\u201d says Dr. Matthew. While more research is needed in order to determine if it can actually treat or prevent a yeast infection, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/amir-marashi-md-facog-facs-ba5242a1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Amir Marashi, MD<\/a>, the celebrity &#8220;Vagina Whisperer&#8221; and an OB-GYN cosmetic gynecologist says it doesn\u2019t hurt to consume cinnamon while experiencing a yeast infection. \u201cI believe it\u2019s a great remedy to attribute to a balanced pH in the vagina during infection,\u201d he explains.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div  class=\"related-block bg-lighter -mx-4 md:mx-0 p-4 md:p-6 grid grid-cols-2 gap-4 sm:gap-6 my-10\">\n\t<div class=\"col-span-2 text-xs font-semibold uppercase\">Related Stories<\/div>\n\t\n<article><a class=\"flex flex-col sm:flex-row group !no-underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/foods-for-vaginal-health\/\">\n<div class=\"aspect-square bg-lighter mb-4 sm:mb-0 sm:mr-4 w-full sm:w-20 sm:shrink-0\">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"120\" height=\"120\" src=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/vagina-cleansing-foods-1-jpg-120x120.webp\" class=\"object-cover w-full block h-full transition-opacity group-hover:opacity-80 !mb-0 not-transparent wp-post-image\" alt=\"vagina cleansing foods\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/vagina-cleansing-foods-1-jpg-120x120.webp 120w, https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/vagina-cleansing-foods-1-jpg-245x245.webp 245w, https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/vagina-cleansing-foods-1-jpg-302x302.webp 302w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 120px) 100vw, 120px\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" data-dominant-color=\"d59053\" style=\"--dominant-color: #d59053;\" \/><\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"text-xs sm:text-base line-clamp-3 font-semibold group-hover:text-primary\">The Best Vagina-Cleansing Foods to Eat<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/article>\n\n<article><a class=\"flex flex-col sm:flex-row group !no-underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/why-is-my-vagina-itchy\/\">\n<div class=\"aspect-square bg-lighter mb-4 sm:mb-0 sm:mr-4 w-full sm:w-20 sm:shrink-0\">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"120\" height=\"120\" src=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/why-does-my-vagina-itch-grapefruit-jpg-120x120.webp\" class=\"object-cover w-full block h-full transition-opacity group-hover:opacity-80 !mb-0 not-transparent wp-post-image\" alt=\"why does my vagina itch grapefruit\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/why-does-my-vagina-itch-grapefruit-jpg-120x120.webp 120w, https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/why-does-my-vagina-itch-grapefruit-jpg-245x245.webp 245w, https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/why-does-my-vagina-itch-grapefruit-jpg-302x302.webp 302w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 120px) 100vw, 120px\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" data-dominant-color=\"ca9e72\" style=\"--dominant-color: #ca9e72;\" \/><\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"text-xs sm:text-base line-clamp-3 font-semibold group-hover:text-primary\">*This* Is What Causes Vaginal Itch, According to OB-GYNs<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/article>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-is-cinnamon-an-aphrodisiac\">Is Cinnamon an Aphrodisiac?\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>In addition to its pH-balancing benefits, cinnamon is considered an aphrodisiac and might increase sex drive in women when consumed. Thanks to its warming properties, cinnamon can increase blood flow and, therefore might have an impact on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/causes-of-low-libido-in-women\/\">libido<\/a>. \u201cHigher sex drive will translate to more frequent sex which, in turn usually translates to more orgasms and better quality of orgasms,\u201d Dr. Marashi says of cinnamon as an aphrodisiac. Dr. Marashi believes that orgasms\u2014especially quality orgasms\u2014are \u201cone of the crucial pillars of overall mental and physical wellness.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>In addition, cinnamon is a calming spice that can help release tension from the muscles and allow you to sink into a deeper state of relaxation. Because of that, cinnamon might also improve <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/mighty-night\/\">sleep<\/a>, which can have an impact on libido in women. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1111\/jsm.12858\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">research<\/a>, sleep deprivation can have a negative impact on sex drive. When women get enough sleep, they are less likely to experience a low sex drive.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-other-cinnamon-benefits-for-women\">Other Cinnamon Benefits for Women<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"b2a191\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #b2a191;\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/cinnamon-benefits.jpg\" alt=\"cinnamon benefits\" class=\"wp-image-31988 not-transparent\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>Cinnamon might be a powerful antibacterial ingredient that can ward off bacteria, but that\u2019s not the only way it benefits women. One <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/30396627\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">study<\/a> showed that cinnamon can target some menstrual symptoms such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/chasteberry-for-pms\/\">PMS<\/a> and dysmenorrhea, making them a little more tolerable.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Another interesting benefit of cinnamon is how it might target other menstrual concerns, such as heavy bleeding, nausea, and vomiting. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4443385\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Research<\/a> shows that when women consume cinnamon during their periods, they might experience less bleeding compared to those who don\u2019t. These women are also more likely to experience significantly less nausea and vomiting, too.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>This fall spice isn\u2019t just great for women\u2019s health. In general, it has some amazing health benefits that could impact those who add a dash of it to their foods, sip on cinnamon tea, or gulp down a pumpkin spice latte before work on a Monday morning. Here are some of the other major health benefits of cinnamon.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Collagen Production: <\/strong>Some <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/22233457\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">studies<\/a> show that cinnamon can support collagen production, which starts to decline in women after age 30. Collagen is responsible for creating a supple, youthful complexion, so it\u2019s an excellent anti-aging ingredient. However, collagen is also vital to the body as a whole, since its main purpose is to create connective tissue. Collagen can also support bone health, helping to stave off the brittleness that comes with age.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Acne Treatment: <\/strong>Since cinnamon is excellent at warding off bacteria, it can work wonders on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/why-wont-my-acne-go-away\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">acne-prone skin<\/a>.
