Helpful Advice Regarding Cayenne

While doing some reading about cayenne I came across this article that Dr. Schulze wrote about Cayenne. It says to take cayenne orally not in capsules, it's more beneficial to the body by taking it orally. I remember reading about that long ago with herbs in general. That it's best to let the mouth do it's job so that the stomach doesn't get shocked. Here's an excerpt of the article, for those of us who will be taking cayenne I just thought it would be good to note this. One of the members (can't remember the name) who had taken cayenne even after a meal had stomach problems. So maybe you could try this and see if it helps.
Quote:
This wasn't the way the old-time herbalists practiced. It wasn't the way my teacher, the late Dr. John Christopher, practiced. He got his results with teas and tinctures.
Capsules disconnect people from the herbs they take, so that they have no personal idea whether they are getting good or lousy quality. Capsules also prevent people from getting a reaction in their mouths, which was what Nature intended.
Another great reason not to take cayenne in capsules is that they can make you real sick. They won't cause permanent damage, but you can suffer greatly. Capsules can give you a stomach cramp that will double you over.
When you put cayenne in your mouth, your stomach secretes digestive juices before the cayenne ever gets there. So when the cayenne gets down there, your stomach is all ready for it.
But if you swallow a capsule, your tongue tastes nothing; a capsule goes down in your stomach, and your stomach notices nothing - at first. Then, five minutes later the gelatin bursts, and you have a 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper in your stomach and your body goes into shock. You surprised it. "Where did this come from?"
"When You Take Cayenne in Capsules, You Get a Punch in the Stomach.
It's a Very Different Reaction. It's Like NO Warm-up or Stretch
Before You do Vigorous Physical Exercise."

Another one - if you do take it in capsules, take your oil soft gel after you take cayenne. I find that whenever I 'overdose' and take to much and get burning throat or stomach, it helps immediately.
