Cayenne Pepper works! Whenever I get stressed out; my jaw, stomach, upper back, the left side of my chest and left arm starts to hurt. I googled the symptoms and saw that it was a sign of Angina so when I got home I took one pill then laid down and the pain went away within a half hour. I take a pill each day along with my other vitamins and I haven't had another episode since.Replied By Kathy (Melbourne, Victoria, Australia) on 04/23/2012
Can you please tell me how much cayenne is in your tablets? I made my own pure cayenne tablets and my stomach would hurt after taking them. That left me not too keen...Replied By Mmsg (Somewhere, Europe) on 04/24/2012
Kathy: Homemade cayenne capsules work well BUT we found out that it causes stomach upset if taken outside meals. So now we know it should only be consumed during or right after a meal.
Also, lower the amount you are taking. If you are taking only one capsule, fill it up to half of what you did before. Remember: take it only with or right after meals.

As regards to cayenne burning, it is best to purchase the Cayenne/Ginger caps so as to alleviate the this prob.Replied By Mike (Vancouver, CA) on 12/09/2014
It has been less than twenty minutes since eating a cayenne pepper and the tightness and heaviness has dissipated. Thank you to the wonderful people at Earth Clinic.
