I took one capsule of 455mg on an empty stomach, and within minutes I could feel the heat in my stomach. It was not painful, but uncomfortable and I felt a bit nauseated. I also got a headache I did not have prior. I won't be taking this again.

I sprinkle my cayenne pepper in my soft scrambled eggs. Never had an issue with using it that way.

Don't give up on cayenne. It is a miracle herb. You just took it wrong. Try 1/4 tsp in 4oz of water first thing in the AM. It will tingle a little, then dissipate. Expect a bowel movement soon after. Awesome, powerful stuff!
