For most of my life if there was a choice between hot, medium and mild for how spicy a dish was, I always picked mild, no question.<\/p>\n

But about 12 years ago I started to slowly change my mind and my palate when it came to warming up to cayenne peppers.<\/p>\n

As I got into researching and trying different natural remedies I kept coming across a laundry list of benefits for cayenne pepper. <\/strong><\/p>\n

It seemed to have a million uses, from revving up your circulation to quickly stopping bleeding from a cut!<\/p>\n

My Favorite Ways to Use Cayenne Pepper\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since cayenne peppers are a food, including jalapenos, habaneros and scotch bonnet\u00a0peppers, I cook with cayenne powder and fresh hot peppers a lot.<\/p>\n

I’ve even gone so far as to make fresh vegetable juices and soups that included cayenne to get an energy boost and extra vitamin C.<\/p>\n

It took me awhile to build up my tolerance to the heat from cayenne peppers.<\/strong> Now I crave spicy foods that are so hot they make me sweat!<\/p>\n

There is an endorphin rush that feels good from eating super hot food.<\/strong> It’s similar to a runner’s high but instead it’s a chili-head high. In fact, your tolerance for cayenne is in proportion to the amount of endorphins circulating in your system. All I know is after taking cayenne pepper I always feel energized and uplifted.<\/p>\n

One of my favorite ways to take cayenne pepper is to put a pinch of the dr<\/strong>i<\/strong>e<\/strong>d powder in water to soothe my throat and give me energy throughout t<\/strong>he d<\/strong>ay<\/strong> without needing to rely on caffeine. <\/strong>This also helps me deal with a headache, clear congestion from a cold or flu and to help relieve pain from menstrual cramps.<\/p>\n

If I accidentally cut myself working in the kitchen, right away I would cle<\/strong>an it, put some cayenne powder on it and cover it with a bandage.<\/strong> The bleeding would stop immediately and I noticed the cut seemed to close up faster and with less scarring.<\/p>\n

As my research and experimentation with cayenne pepper continued, I read some incredible testimonials from famous herbalists like Dr. John R. Christopher about their experiences using cayenne pepper as support for the heart, especially for emergencies like a heart attack..<\/p>\n

One of the ben<\/strong>efits of building a tolerance to cayenne pepper is so you can easily take 4-10 droppersful needed to help stop a heart attack while on the way to the hospital.<\/strong><\/p>\n

See the end of this article for a quick and easy way to build up your tolerance to cayenne pepper.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There is an interesting article about cayenne pepper helping to stop a heart attack in 60 seconds from Natural News you can read here: Cayenne Pepper – Stop a heart attack fast\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

The article quotes Dr. Christopher on his success with cayenne pepper. Dr. Christopher says, \u201cIn 35 years of practice, and working with the people and teaching,\u00a0I have never on house calls lost one heart attack patient and the reason is, whenever I go in\u2013if they are still breathing \u2013 I pour a cup of cayenne tea<\/strong>\u00a0down them\u00a0<\/strong>(a teaspoon of cayenne in a cup of hot water), and within minutes they are up and around.\u201d<\/p>\n

The owners of Southern Botanicals have also shared their own true story of a friend using cayenne for relief while on his way to the hospital from a heart attack!<\/p>\n

True Story from the Owners of Southern Botanicals<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Stuart, a very good frien<\/em>d of mine, had mild diabetes, the kind that can be improved with a good diet and exercise. He had started on a nutritional program and was really working on it. But early into that program when he was only in his forties, he had a heart attack. He went to the emergency room and had a blockage removed and a stent (tube) inserted into an artery. He went ho<\/em>me the next day, but was then very cautious, because of course he hadn’t seen the attack coming, and he wanted to avoid another one. Suddenly, the future looked very d<\/em>ifferent for him, and even a bit scary.<\/em><\/p>\n

Right away, Stuart got in touch with Ron Radstrom here at Southern Botanicals for advice. The answer was:\u00a0Start immediately taking drops of cayenne and gradually build up with more drops everyday to strengthen his circulation.<\/strong>\u00a0And that\u2019s what Stuart did over the next couple of weeks. However, unfortunately one night, he felt symptoms of another heart attack coming on. But this time, he was prepared!<\/em><\/p>\n

Stuart got his wife to run and get ready to take him to the hospital. He then im<\/em>mediately squirted four droppersful of Cayenne under his tongue, and a few minutes later wh<\/em>en his wife came to get him to go to the emergency room, he was sitting on the couch with a big grin on his face. He told her the heart attack had STOPPED! All signs and symptoms vanished and never returned.<\/em><\/p>\n

Stuart has not had a heart attack since, and that was over six years ago.<\/em><\/p>\n

What a wonderful succes<\/em>s story, and we still have Stuart around, our friend, and that\u2019s a nice outcome.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
