About Us
The Discovery That Started Everything
It began with a deep dive into Blue Zone research, the five regions of the world where communities consistently live longer, healthier lives. One detail kept surfacing across cultures and continents: the regular, daily use of Ceylon cinnamon as a food ingredient.
In Nicoya, Costa Rica, one of the world's most studied longevity communities, Ceylon cinnamon isn't a supplement. It's simply food. It's in the morning café con canela, in the rice and beans, in the agua dulce. Passed down through generations, woven into daily life for decades.
What struck us wasn't just the ingredient itself, it was the consistency. The same botanical, used every single day across a lifetime.
Not All Cinnamon Is Cinnamon
This is where most people hit a wall. Over 95% of the cinnamon sold in the United States is Cassia — a related but botanically distinct species. Cassia contains significantly higher levels of coumarin and a different profile of bioactive compounds than true Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum).
Ceylon — what Nicoyans actually use — has roughly 250 times less coumarin and a richer concentration of the polyphenols and cinnamaldehyde that give the spice its character.
The other issue is dosage. A pinch in a latte is around 0.1 grams. The traditional Nicoyan daily intake — across multiple meals — is closer to 1–3 grams of the real thing. It's not that cinnamon didn't work for you. You just likely never had the right kind, or enough of it.
What We Built
LivingCore exists because the product we wanted didn't exist. One ingredient — sourced properly, concentrated appropriately, delivered effectively.
True Ceylon cinnamon from Costa Rica — DNA-verified Cinnamomum verum, not Cassia. Sourced from the same region as the Blue Zone communities we studied.
Our 12:1 concentrated extract delivers the equivalent of 7,200mg of raw Ceylon cinnamon per serving — aligned with traditional daily use patterns.
MCT oil delivery system because cinnamon's active compounds are fat-soluble. Dry powder capsules waste a significant portion of what you swallow. We suspend the extract in organic MCT oil for better absorption.
Third-party tested every single batch for heavy metals, purity, and potency. Certificates of analysis are always available.
Our Promise to You
We won't make claims we can't back up. Ceylon cinnamon is a remarkable botanical with centuries of traditional use — and that's worth saying clearly, without embellishment.
We won't hide behind proprietary blends. Our sourcing, testing, and concentrations are all visible and verifiable.
LivingCore is a wellness supplement, not a treatment. Please continue working with your healthcare provider and let them know what you're adding to your routine.
180-day guarantee — because you've probably been burned by overhyped supplements before. Test us for six months. If you're not satisfied, you get every penny back.
