Cayenne - stupid question

On a herb site you can bulk buy herbs in powder which looks good (although they're quite expensive, but I guess you get a large quantity), is cayenne powder just the same as I would buy from the supermarket for cooking?

Yes as long as it's called capsicum, but you don't know what the s.h.u. (standard heat units) are (should be at least 40,000 from what I've read) and also you have to be very careful about not touching the powder as it will burn your eyes and nose and mouth if you touch them and may also burn skin. So, it may be easier just to buy the capsules.

I dont't see why you can't use what you'd find in the spice isle. I don't think you need much cayenne if you are just using it to boost other herbs. so I wouldn't buy that one in bulk. of the ready made pills that also contain cayenne that I can find in a search they only had 10-50mg cayenne in it. most had 10-25mg.

Yes Louise just buy cayenne pepper powder.As long as its nice and bright color,that means its fresh.
I grow my own also.
I would used grind it and powder it myself,,but it gets quite harsh for your nose. Its good for your immune system.
Ive heard of native peoples that snort it right into there noses,to combat infections and such.
It is one of the best things for stripping the plaques from arteries.
One of my business customers had a Doc that put him on cayenne only for clearing small blockages in his arteries.
He said he was taking 5-6 capsules a day.
Solaray herbs has an buffered cayenne that is for people that have some reactions to cayenne.It comes in different levels of scoville heat units
Some people are actually allergic to the essential oil.
Its quite amazing what all it can do for the body.
Mainly circulatory and immune systems.
Book by Dr.William Christopher,...sorry that I cannot find my copy to get proper title.
He healed his own heart disease with 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper a day,for several months

Hiya, I made a mistake as to the Dr's name,I got two guys mixed up.
I couldn't find my book by him,so I was trying to recall his name.
He is Dr.John Ray Christopher. Im not so good recalling people names but Im much better with botanical stuff.
Well,Just for some to go along with NBE,I'd just recommend taking a capsule whenever you take some other pills or just take one whenever you eat a meal.
Just drink a little bit of milk with it and you wont have any stomach burning.
I used to get a little burning when I took them, and I just drink a bit of milk and it counteracts the burning effect.
For maintainance doses for general health,its recommended to take one to two capsules along with meals.
Cayenne also lowers blood pressure.
