Hi group:
Dr. Schultze (spelling?), student of Dr. Christopher (called the father of
American herbal medicine), master herbalists, suggested using the entire
bottle of cayenne tincture if one is having a heart attack. You will pass
out,
for sure, because the cayenne is so strong, but then recover without need for
the ER, according to them. I always keep a bottle of cayenne tincture in the
house, and another in the car, and my purse, for this reason.
Obviously, do not take a whole bottle of cayenne tincture while driving.

They also suggested a cayenne treatment for eye problems that they said
worked wonders, but was rather strong, in that blindness results after use for
around five minutes, but then vision returns and is better than before. I
haven't had the nerve to try that one, but if I was having a heart attack I
figure I would have nothing to loose by downing a bottle of tincture, anyway.
By
the way, cayenne will give the sensation of burning your stomach if you have
nothing in it, so take it with food, if possible, but this is not supposed to
be harmful, just unpleasant. My daughter was told to take cayenne for a
bleeding ulcer. She did, and went from vomiting blood to "normal as usual"
the
following day, eating and drinking things she was told not to, without any
symptoms or stomach pain. She has had no further problems (ten years later).
Cayenne is supposed to be the herb of choice for circulatory system problems.
I have read that it is suggested for heavy menstrual bleeding (hemorrhage)
that is resistant to other treatment (mix cayenne with warm water while lying
in the bathtub and douche with a turkey baster). A person I heard of was
suffering personality changes from an intracranial bleed following a head
injury; he was told to take 9 capsules of cayenne a day for this problem. I
don't
know if he did take it, or, if so, what the results were. The advice came
from a medical intuitive who is no longer available to me, but his advice has
proved valuable in the past, so I stored this information in my brain. I
always muscle test to find the appropriate amount for my situation, but, of
course, in an emergency I would just "go for it."
Does anybody know if the "Cool Cayenne" one can purchase in the health food
store is as affective as regular cayenne? Does cool mean the heat units are
reduced, which, according to Dr. Schultze, would make it less effective, or
if the heat effects are just buffered or masked in some way? I could probably
ask the company, but I don't know that I could trust the answer I got
anyway. If there is a profit motive, I generally like a second (or third)
opinion.
