Here are some of the Cinnamon sticks benefits (source):

• Packed with Potent Compounds: Cinnamon contains cinnamaldehyde, the key compound that gives it both its distinct aroma and many of its health benefits.
• A Powerful Antioxidant: This spice is loaded with polyphenols, antioxidants that help fight off oxidative stress and protect your body from damage.
• Supports Inflammation Control: Thanks to its antioxidants, cinnamon may also help reduce inflammation, which is linked to many chronic illnesses.
• Good for the Heart: Cinnamon may improve major heart health markers like blood pressure, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels.
• Improves Insulin Sensitivity: Cinnamon may make your body respond better to insulin, which is essential for keeping blood sugar levels in check.
• Naturally Helps Lower Blood Sugar: Consuming 1–6 grams (roughly 0.5 to 2 teaspoons) of cinnamon daily may help lower fasting blood sugar levels.
• Brain Health Booster: Early research shows cinnamon might help protect the brain and even slow symptoms of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s—though more human studies are needed.
• Potential Anti-Cancer Effects: Lab and animal studies suggest cinnamon could help protect against certain cancers. Human research is still underway.
• Fights Germs Naturally: Cinnamaldehyde has been shown to fight bacteria and fungi, which might help prevent infections, improve oral health, and even reduce bad breath.
• May Offer Antiviral Protection: Preliminary research hints that cinnamon could help combat certain viruses. However, further studies are needed to confirm these effects in humans.
