its still a bogus story.
uses of Cinnamaldehyde from the wiki:
As a flavorant[edit]
The most obvious application for cinnamaldehyde is as flavoring in chewing gum, ice cream, candy, and beverages; use levels range from 9 to 4900 parts per million (ppm) (that is, less than 0.5%). It is also used in some perfumes of natural, sweet, or fruity scents. Almond, apricot, butterscotch, and other aromas may partially employ the compound for their pleasant smells. Cinnamaldehyde can be used as a food adulterant; powdered beechnut husk aromatized with cinnamaldehyde can be marketed as powdered cinnamon.[6]
As an agrichemical[edit]
Cinnamaldehyde is also used as a fungicide.[7] Proven effective on over 40 different crops, cinnamaldehyde is typically applied to the root systems of plants. Its low toxicity and well-known properties make it ideal for agriculture. Cinnamaldehyde is an effective insecticide, and its scent is also known to repel animals, such as cats and dogs.[7] It has recently been recognized as a very effective insecticide for mosquito larvae.[8] As little as 29 ppm of cinnamaldehyde kills half of Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae in 24 hours.[9][10]
As an antimicrobial[edit]
Another use for cinnamaldehyde is as an antimicrobial. Researchers from the University of Illinois at Chicago (who were funded by the Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company) have found that cinnamic aldehyde, when used in Big Red, prevented oral bacterial growth by more than 50%.[11] It is especially effective against bacteria living at the back of the tongue, reducing anaerobic bacteria populations by about 43%.
As an anticancer agent[edit]
Recent research documents anticancer activity of cinnamaldehyde/cinnamic aldehyde observed in cell culture and animal models of the disease. Proliferation, invasion, and tumor growth were inhibited in a murine A375 model of human melanoma, though only at high doses not achievable
through dietary intake.[12]
Miscellaneous uses[edit]
Cinnamaldehyde is also known as a corrosion inhibitor for steel and other ferrous alloys in corrosive fluids. It can be used in combination with additional components such as dispersing agents, solvents and other surfactants. Its high refractive index of 1.6220 makes it a fairly safe and useful fluid for examining gemstone rough for inclusions.
the writer of this report went a long way to get e-cigs into a bad light.
being its use storage and shipment is regulated by government as it
is approved by the FDA the package had to be damaged in transit,
not packed correctly,(doubtful) or sabotaged.
