Introduction: overweight and obesity are currently considered the most common nutritional pathology in companion animals, studies have shown that blood metabolite levels as triglycerides, total cholesterol and glucose are so high in dogs and cats that programs are recommended to help lose weight, it is here botanical products such as cinnamon are important. Objective: of this review will be to show the benefits of the use of cinnamon in animal obesity. Materials and methods: an electronic search was carried out in different databases and 11 articles were chosen which spoke about the benefits of cinnamon in the management of obesity. Results: the cinnamon is a spice rich in substances such as polyphenols, tannins, coumarin, cinnamaldehyde, eugenol, the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors ligands (PPAR), procianidins type A and type B, has a similar effect to insulin and in turn increases some glucose transporters, such as GLUT4, thus decreasing blood glucose levels, It was found that cinnamon has hypolipidemic effects, antiinflammatory and even antiangiogenesis effects. Conclusion: Cinnamomun has benefical effects on glucose and lipid metabolism in animals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
