Jen, When any doctor tells you there's no cure, what he's actually saying is that he doesn't currently have a drug that will help...Look at all the issues back in the 1800's. cholera, yellow fever etc. etc that are now long gone...My conclusion is that if anyone has a health issue it means the body is out of sync with either a vitamin or mineral...I have had many clients get relief from cayenne pepper up to three times a day...If it bothers your stomach tale 1/2 glass of water with tablespoon apple cider vinegar with a squirt of lemon and 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda...Upset stomach gone... Google cayenne ...it has many, many benefits...Replied By Jenn (Nanaimo, B.c.) on 01/17/2014
Mr Ree, have you suggested cayenne pepper to people specifically with raynauds? Does it help with both primary and secondary raynauds? I have made several adjustments to my diet and Apple Cider Vinegar has become part of my regular diet. My doctor has told me of medications to help cope with the pain. But also alerted me of the side effects. He gave me info on how to avoid attacks in the first place as well as how to get out of attacks once they have started. Thus far the info I stated above has been all that has helped. Also keeping stress at bay helps. How do I take cayenne pepper? it is not something I even have in my house. I have chipotle and cajun. Is that the same? Do I just take spoons of it? Please explain more if you will :) I just wish it would go away for good.Replied By Mr. Ree (Usa) on 01/17/2014
I buy mine at a health food store in bulk...I also buy capsules and fill about 20 at a time and use them as required...You can also buy the bulk cayenne at most vitamins sites...They also have empty capsules...If you pack your capsules yourself be sure to wash you hands thoroughly afterwards because if you put your hand in your eye it will not be a pleasant experience...If you google "Cayenne+ benefits" you will see the many and varied things that this miraculous herb does...It gets rid of hemmoroids in a couple of days...Stops heart attacks in one minute or less and raise body temperature. cleans arteries and about 100 + other things with no side effects like drugs...I would start with 1/2 pill a day...Then if you feel that's enough stop taking it...or go to a full pill and continue until you have taken 3 capsules a day...BTY you can purchase empty pill capsules for very low price...I think it's about $4.00 for 500...The bulk cayenne is about 5-8 dollars a pound...Three a day is about the max...But I have known people who take more...If it upsets your stomach take a half glass water and put 1/4 teaspoon baking soda with 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar and a squirt of lemon...It'll work in about 30 seconds...Replied By Mr. Ree (Usa) on 01/17/2014
Jen, BTW, you have to be consistant with the cayenne.
My wife...Ms. Ree...has raynauds and the tips of her fingers get either white or black in the winter...They problem is resolved with cayenne...Then she stops taking it and it comes back...

Mr.Ree, thank you for your informative suggestion. I will give cayenne a try after my surgery. I've been told to stop taking all meds, herbs, and vitamins 10 days prior to my surgery. I have to admit when I read your first post the first thing that ran into my mind was the scene from the movie 'Dumb & Dumber" when Jim Carrey puts chilli's in the unsuspecting guys burger and he croaks. Would taking teaspoons of it burn or by pill would it burn? I'm going to do as you suggested and google the benefit and such. Do you personally know of any good links? I can appreciate that your wife personally has raynauds. This year is the first year I've managed to keep most attacks at bay. But it's at the cost of staying in almost the entire winter. I really appreciate your advice.Replied By Mr. Ree (Usa) on 01/19/2014
Don't take cayenne by the spoonful...It will burn your mouth...Take it in capsule form...Some people put a little and make tea but I want a good blast of it when needed...It keeps my feet warm whenever they get cold especially in this winter....There are a ton of sites that give the benefits...There's one with about 100 benefits...Can't remember the name of it...
