Description
Capsicum anuum / (Capsicum frutescens) [pulvis fructuum]
Origin: India
Cayenne Pepper is placed between 30,000 and 50,000 scoville heat units on the Scoville scale. That's hotter than a jalepeno, but not quite as hot as a bird's eye chilli!
Within tropical countries, Cayenne is introduced to dishes to reduce the risk of infection manifesting in the gut.
Health perk
Bacteria-neutralising and parasite-depleting; relieving gastrointestinal infections.Therefore, also prevents and manages colds, coughs and chest infections.
Enhances digestion by stimulating digestive enzymes required to break down our foods. Furthermore, encourages the growth of good bacteria and less bloating by influencing better muscular contractions of the gut. Adds aid to cases of constipation, whilst dealing with any irritation or inflammation throughout the colon, as an antiseptic and indirect nourisher.
Reduces inflammation and congestion in high blood pressure; by causing vasodilation of the blood vessels and minimising blockages. The capsaicin constituent in Cayenne brings down LDL levels, which results in counteracting the hardening of arterial vessels.
Relieves pain from revitalising blood in poor circulation, especially where menstruation imbalances are concerned.
Acts as a useful component in salves for muscular aches and, arthritic and joint pain. But, can also be mixed appropriately with an individually-suited base oil, which is then applied on the specific area.
Decongests by thinning and clearing out catarrh, via the mucous membranes. With that stated, it's a great addition to a herbal remedy for this ailment.
P.S. ***If pregnant/ nursing, or there are health imbalances that require attention, it is always wise to consult a qualified herbal practitioner... even before trying a new remedy.
