YES
I have found that cinnamon (I make it into a tea) does help relieve bladder spasms associated with IC. Most folks with IC do not have E. coli infections, so that would not apply.

YES
Cinnamon is a great natural antibiotic, among other qualities. It is quite effective for e-coli, which is often associated with IC. You have nothing to lose by giving it a go, cinnamon is all benefits and no side effects. You can also use it the same time as MSM or other remedies.
