The essential oil of obtained from the cinnamon leaf is relatively non-toxic. I may be ingested in small amounts.

The essential oil obtained from the cinnamon bark is a dermal toxin, irritant and sensitizer; it also irritates mucous membranes.

Both forms are commonly used and in small diluted doses may be ingested, however it is advisable to test for Allergies before using much. I personally know several people who have an allergic reaction to cinnamon even in very small doses.

Is oil of oregano safe to give horses?

I have used essential oils professionally for more than 20 years for products at vivantnatural.com. While there are a few essential oils that are safe to ingest, there are many more that should not be ingested. It is good practice not to take essential oils orally, but rely on the essential oils in the herb itself. That would be far safer. Dogs can eat oregano, garlic, and many other herbs.
