Let’s talk about Cayenne! 🌶

Let’s talk about Cayenne! 🌶 I’m sure you’ve heard about its ability to potentially stop a heart attack dead in its tracks. So why is that? Well it’s a major warming stimulant for the cardiovascular system. A blood mover & vessel dilator. Cayenne increases circulation & opens the peripheral capillaries. When mixing cayenne with any other herbs it works synergistically to actually increase the actions of those herbs making them even more effective. This is another tincture I like to have in my first aid kit! I also have it powdered in our styptic blend for its ability to stop bleeding & in our pain relief salve for things like arthritis, menstrual cramps, neuropathy & muscle/joint pain. (So if you’re ever in the kitchen & cut yourself grab some cayenne & pack it on the wound) I know when you think of something hot & spicy like cayenne you’d think it would agitate something like ulcers. When in fact cayenne supports the lining of our stomach. Because it can block Substance P it actually can relieve any pain associated with ulcers & address secondary infections like the H. pylori bacterial infection. These are just a few ways we can benefit from cayenne out of the many. It’s an easy preparation that anyone can make! I recommend getting some quality vibrant red cayenne to have on hand. “With care, Alex Carter“ 🧘‍♀ Body Harmony
