CAYENNE PEPPER

Cayenne pepper contains capsaicin, an active compound responsible for its “heat”. Applied topically, capsaicin helps to alleviate pain by reducing the amount of a neuropeptide known as substance P that travels to the brain to signal pain.

Capsaicin salve is often recommended for osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, joint or muscle pain from fibromyalgia or other causes, nerve pain from shingles, pain after surgery, such as a mastectomy or an amputation, pain from nerve damage in the feet or legs from diabetes, and low back pain. It also can reduce itching and inflammation from psoriasis, as well as improve the skin’s general appearance.
