Q: How much is too much cinnamon added to cereal for one day?

A: Cinnamon is felt to be safe in the amounts used for cooking.  A typical recipe calls for one teaspoon. The safety concern is about coumarin. This is a substance found in cinnamon that can harm the liver if too much is eaten. There is more than one variety of cinnamon.  Stronger cinnamon usually contains more courmarin. Coumarin is also found in other plants so amount of cinnamon that can be safely consumed will vary based on what else is being eaten.
