Coumarin
Cassia cinnamon (common commercial type) contains **coumarin**, a compound that may cause liver toxicity in high doses or trigger allergic reactions (e.g., skin irritation, headaches) in sensitive individuals. Not a classical IgE-mediated allergen but regulated in some regions (e.g., EU limits in foods). Ceylon cinnamon has negligible coumarin.
