Cinnamon aka Rou Gui
has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine as a warming herb for the channels and joints. Used for arthritic symptoms in knees, elbows, hips and back that are made worse during cold damp winter days.
Cinnamon Meatballs for Dogs
Here is a meatball recipe for your dog with warming cinnamon for those dogs affected by cold damp winter days.
NOTE: Please do not add onion to this recipe as onion is toxic for dogs.
