@@HeidiVillegas you're welcome! Such a helpful video. There's emerging research that it is good for IBD and IBS. and I've been taking it for that - I built my way up to 1 teaspoon a day mixed with lemon, water, and a little maple syrup. The results have been profound. And I found your website too!! You're awesome - love what I've read and learned from you.
Cayenne is great for stopping nose bleeds too! I drink it in water once in a while if I get them. Thank you for your salve! I have loads from harvest this year and now know just what to do with them.
See Barbara O’Neill, video on Cheyenne peppers 🌶️ where she mentioned an author who summarizes many herb & their uses in single pages. And gave 10 pages to Cheyenne peppers
Sounds like the Cayenne masterclass inside our Confident Herbalist Tribe membership! I believe that text is around 60 pages long with many included clinical studies. It's truly an amazing plant. healingharvesthomestead.lpages.co/kaj-confident-herbalist-tribe-sp/
You are the 1st one to mention that the rest of the plant is toxic. I read about it on a book and heard another UA-camr, and nothing about toxicity. Thank you!!!
Great video! I grew my own cayenne for the first time this year in Zone 8a in Lynden, WA. The other night I made my own Louisiana Style hot sauce for the first time and it was fun to try it last night. I am happy to see that cayenne also offers a lot of health benefits in addition to being tasty 👊🏻🌻👊🏻
One way I've used it is on my carpal tunnel area, where there's numbness. I often will use it when the pain is acute, along with my formula that I formulated specifically for my carpal tunnel...and it's been amazing! Here's the recipe for the carpal tunnel blend, and you could also try this on areas as well. I also have a video for increasing circulation in a foot soak, if that might be helpful? ua-cam.com/video/_IlbBSnD0V4/v-deo.html
As a single guy i have never gottn into making oils, tinctures, decoctions etc but I'd be willing to try eating part of a cayanee pepper to clear congestion but i do want it as a bleed stop so i suppose ill be purchasing that version.
I normally don't prefer using powders in extractions, especially in oils, but I've found that with cayenne, you get a REALLY powerful infused oil with the powder. The trick is to shake it daily. If you're growing your own cayenne, just use a grinder dedicated to herbs and be sure to clean it well after use. :-)
There are other herbs I would primarily use, depending on your type of ulcer. Remember, herbs aren't like drugs. We choose them according to the individual's needs and situation. But cayenne could be a fine support! Look into Oregon grape root and calendula....without knowing more, those may be helpful. (This is NOT medical advice, as I'm not a doctor. I'm an herbalist. The FDA likes me to make sure people know this. )
No, just go by the jar size is best. Fill your cayenne about 1/3 to just under a half full in the jar. Then add your olive oil. Use a skewer or shake well to fully incorporate the oil. Then you'll need to top it off as the cayenne will absorb some. It's important to shake it daily because otherwise the cayenne powder gets compacted. Good luck!
You can use store-bought herbs, but I prefer purchasing from an herbal shop like Starwest Botanicals. They're actually less expensive and of much higher quality.
Thank you so much for sharing. I have a question??? You said you dehydrate them in the dehydrator and then air dry.... So it looks like you dehydrate them whole.... Is it ok if I put them in the dehydrator whole??????????????? THANKS SO MUCH
I’ve been talking Cayenne before I go to bed and it’s really helped with the leg cramps I get during the night. I was wondering if Cayenne is okay to use long term? Thanks for this good information.
It depends on your body, how much you're taking, etc. But generally it's quite safe. It does thin the blood, so be aware of this and if you're on blood thinners, be sure to ask your doctor if it's ok. Also, have you tried magnesium?
@@HeidiVillegas Thank you so much for your reply. Yes I do take Magnesium as well but it was when I started the Cayenne, I noticed a reduction in the cramping. Yes I have heard it’s a blood thinner. Although it’s confusing because I’ve heard putting it on a cut, will stop the bleeding…so doesn’t that help the blood coagulate. Being a blood thinner is a concern for me because my blood is thin naturally and I don’t take any medication. Maybe I need to work on finding another solutions for leg cramps.
To an extent, yes. I feel that the range of heat units is best between 30K and 90K. There's not much reason to go hotter than that, and temporarily burning the skin is a potential issue (as I've found from experience).
I always strain out the powder. For the tincture, there are a lot of variables including the S.H.U. and how much you use, plus the proof of alcohol. I would test it on your skin as the weeks go by.
Thanks for that tip! You can infuse the oil and use that too---it may not be as scratchy as with the powder. If the powder is working as is, that's wonderful!
I haven't! But...it's super easy. Using the dried cayenne powder, fill a jar roughly 1/3 full. Fill to within one inch of the top with 80 proof or higher alcohol. Shake faithfully every day (or the powder will turn to cement, lol) for 4-6 weeks. Strain off the liquid. Enjoy!
Can you please tell me if there are two different types of Cayenne peppers? Thank you. I asked because I bought a packet and it's very spicy; my daughter gave me a packet and the colour is slightly darker and it's not spicy at all!
Hey, SkinnyDee! So, the peppers are in the Solanaceae family, and in this family are the Capsicum genus. Within the Capsicum genus, you'll find around 25 different species. Cayenne (Capsicum annuum) has a high amount of the chemical capsaicin, and this is why most herbal preparations for pain relief, soothing nerve pain, etc. are made with this species. The most common range of heat units are between 60K to 90K although there's a larger range than those. So, you'll need to know the species name of the pepper your daughter brought home. And then if you can, see if you can get the heat unit range. Most nurseries don't give you the Skoville heat unit range. You can purchase your cayenne powder from quality herb suppliers, like Starwest or Mountain Rose or Pacific Botanicals---they test the heat units for you so that you'll know what you're getting. If you grow your own, which I also recommend, you'll not really know for sure your heat unit range. But cayenne is just one of those peppers that works!
Here you go! It's in an article on my website: www.healingharvesthomestead.com/home/2016/11/27/diy-natural-decongestant-that-really-works?rq=decongestant
You'll need to choose a good Skoville heat rating for your body first, and then decide how you want to use the cayenne---internally or externally or both, then make the preparations you need. There are quite a few options with cayenne, so people will choose what's best for them. :-) For join pains, for example, most people prefer the salve....some with just the heat; and others find some relief by adding cooling herbs/oils to it too. If you're pre-diabetic, be sure to discuss lifestyle changes with your doctor because pre-diabetes may be able to be completely reversed! And that's the best thing.
It burns for just a couple of seconds...and then the capsaicin's numbing and pain-soothing effects go to work! In fact, using cayenne herbal wash on shingles, chicken pox, or cold sore blisters that have popped already can really help with the pain from those, too.
I used a recipe of coconut oil, Tabasco hot sauce and tea tree oil. I used it in my back when I had shingles, it cleared up quickly, it didn't hurt either.
Take a look at our Confident Herbalist Tribe for deeper dives into plant preparations, phytochemistry, and more! healingharvesthomestead.lpages.co/kaj-confident-herbalist-tribe-sp/ You can also visit my website, where I have a detailed article on cayenne: www.healingharvesthomestead.com
You should always, always check for herb-drug interactions with any herb or medication. Used internally, cayenne acts as a blood thinner, so you need to avoid or use caution with blood thinning medications. Be sure to check with your doctor!
I don't sell the products except to clients as part of a consultation or sometimes local people in my community. But you can purchase it from HerbPharm or Gaia Herbs, I'm pretty sure!
Please wash it first, really well. Then I'd use some strong antimicrobial spray (which you can also make). Then sprinkle the cayenne if it's still bleeding. If it becomes infected....to the doc you go, just in case---and you may need a check for rabies, depending on how well you know the dog, etc.
You would use the tincture--a few drops in water. But honestly, this recipe I'll share in this link is very well-suited to migraines: healingharvesthomestead.com/home/2016/9/4/migraines-make-a-tincture-that-takes-off-the-edge
Hot peppers all contain capsaicin, which is the primary medicinal compound in peppers, but not all have as much as others. :-) Cayenne is a great pepper because it seems to have just the right amount for most of us.
Heidi I’m so thankful I stumbled on your channel! I’ve learned so much from you and intend to follow you forever 😁. I’m sure you are inundated with comments and suggestions so I’m going to sound off too, you might find this video interesting/enlightening ua-cam.com/users/livea8hZ5wScRoI?si=CrEE71tmiVgrrBlx. In it she has distinct reasons for choosing specific oils and extraction methods , does a great job in explaining her reasoning, although she does ramble a bit and gets distracted easily. I’d really like to know what you think of her philosophies. I’m not familiar with with Michael Moore or Cammy McBride but she of their influence. Again, thank you for taking the time and effort to enrich our lives. God bless Pixie Werner (Boise)
Thanks, Pixie! I'll check out the video, and yes, Michael Moore is one of the great old time herbalists...he's wonderful. Kami has done quite a lot with herbs in the kitchen and infused oils.

Thank you so much!💖
Thank you very much for all the information, I have just started using cayenne pepper to help my digestion and for weight loss
This is wonderful! Let us know how it goes! It may even help a bit with energy. :-)

Yes, I just love the peppers too! :-)
Probably the most informative video on this subject I have watched.
Thank you SO much! You made my day!🥰

The book is called Back to Eden
Just finished this salve. Its going in my herbal cabinet. Love your videos and ty for sharing all this information.
Thanks, Sue!
Great information!, I love cayenne and I use it very much in my kitchen. Now i will try to make a tincture. Thanks.
Wonderful, Carmen! It's such a great herb, and I love when they have both culinary and medicinal uses.
You are the 1st one to mention that the rest of the plant is toxic. I read about it on a book and heard another UA-camr, and nothing about toxicity. Thank you!!!
You're so welcome!
Mildly toxic. My partner is from Asia. They regularly use the leaves as well and we will add them to our salads. Not dead yet.
Fear mongering. Maybe a truckload but whose going to use that much😅😂
She said the leaves are mildly toxic not the rest of the pepper

It is super good for us, and isn't our own hot sauce the BEST? :-)
Great information Heidi!! I'm using my Cayenne daily! 😉
Perfect!😊
I made the cayenne tincture and put it in my coffee. It helps!
Hey, that's GREAT, Cheryl! I know Joe really loves it in his coffee, too, and he says he can completely feel the difference.
You can’t but love it in coffee and tea
I love it in my coffee to❤
@@HeidiVillegasThank you for this great video. Do you have a video on how to make cayenne tincture? 🌷
@@HeidiVillegas What difference does he feel? What does it do?
I always grow cayenne. I season my food and use it in my salves. Thank you for this informative video.
You are so welcome!🌶
You are right on spot with the cayenne peppers. Where do you get the bird pitcher, I want to but it.
Thanks! Oh, gosh! I made this video so long ago, I'm not sure even what pitcher it is. :-) I'll have to watch again to see.

It's a great powder to have on hand! If you grow your own cayenne, you can certainly powder that up too.
Good one. Thank you
Hey, thank you for the comment and you're welcome!🥰
Loved it thank you 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶
You're so welcome!
Had to laugh out loud at the 'be smarter than the bag' comment! :)
LOL! Oh, gosh! I thought Joe would have edited that out! Well, I'm glad you got a kick out of it!🤣
When making the cayenne infused oil for the pain salve, do you use the whole cayenne pepper or do you use powder, or does it matter which you use?
I normally don't prefer using powders in extractions, especially in oils, but I've found that with cayenne, you get a REALLY powerful infused oil with the powder. The trick is to shake it daily. If you're growing your own cayenne, just use a grinder dedicated to herbs and be sure to clean it well after use. :-)
What variety do you find to be the best?
Hi is the cayenne pepper good for ulcers

Hi Heidi, when making Cayenne pepper infused oil how full do you fill your jar with the powder
About 1/3 full. :-)
Mornin Heidi how to make the tincture pls the exact ratio Alcohol, ACV ? or what? Want to take it daily
Tks
Hi, Janet! It's been a year or so since I made this video. Can you be specific? Are you asking about tincturing?
Hi, Heidi. So for a cayenne infused oil we would use 2 cups of cayenne and 4 cups of oil? (For the 1:2 ratio).
No, just go by the jar size is best. Fill your cayenne about 1/3 to just under a half full in the jar. Then add your olive oil. Use a skewer or shake well to fully incorporate the oil. Then you'll need to top it off as the cayenne will absorb some. It's important to shake it daily because otherwise the cayenne powder gets compacted. Good luck!
Thank you

Is cayenne powder from walmart and other grocery stores good to use too or is it a certain kind?
You can use store-bought herbs, but I prefer purchasing from an herbal shop like Starwest Botanicals. They're actually less expensive and of much higher quality.
@@HeidiVillegas thank you
Thank you so much for sharing. I have a question??? You said you dehydrate them in the dehydrator and then air dry.... So it looks like you dehydrate them whole.... Is it ok if I put them in the dehydrator whole??????????????? THANKS SO MUCH

Does the heat unit impact its medicinal value? I.e. the higher the HU the more concentrated the healing value?
To an extent, yes. I feel that the range of heat units is best between 30K and 90K. There's not much reason to go hotter than that, and temporarily burning the skin is a potential issue (as I've found from experience).
@@HeidiVillegas thank you!! 😊
Quick question. Where do we find the best cayenne pepper powder to buy? Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Recently this is our family nr 1 herb. We al take it daily. And a friend of ours has lichen planus in her mounth and her pain is gone after 3 days!
That's wonderful!
Dear Ms Heidi, do u include the seeds when u grind dried cayenne into powder?
Absolutely!
Hi, I'm looking for a recipe for the cayenne tincture. Can you share how you make yours?
I make it pretty much just like I make the herbal infused oil....only I use 80 proof alcohol.
How long do you tincture for a topical liniment so it does not burn the skin? And do you strain out the fine powder or leave it in a liniment?
I always strain out the powder. For the tincture, there are a lot of variables including the S.H.U. and how much you use, plus the proof of alcohol. I would test it on your skin as the weeks go by.
Thank You❤
You're welcome 😊
I add the powder in my lotion and put it on my legs., i have poor circulation and it warms up my legs
Thanks for that tip! You can infuse the oil and use that too---it may not be as scratchy as with the powder. If the powder is working as is, that's wonderful!
How much do you add? I think this is a great idea.
No certain amount just pour a bunch. And it isnt scratchy and i smell good
Wonderful video
Thanks, Mike!

The leaves of cayenne pepper are not toxic, we use them as vegetables, and they are fine.
Thanks for the information! I think I'll try some this year! I think I've just always treated them like tomato leaves.💖
What do you think about making Cayenne pills
I know some do. I haven't done this.... I do like the tincture
Did they cayenne pepper burned when you put it on an open wound?
It burns for just a couple of seconds...and then the capsaicin's numbing and pain-soothing effects go to work! In fact, using cayenne herbal wash on shingles, chicken pox, or cold sore blisters that have popped already can really help with the pain from those, too.
I used a recipe of coconut oil, Tabasco hot sauce and tea tree oil. I used it in my back when I had shingles, it cleared up quickly, it didn't hurt either.
Burned like hell!!!

cayenne pepper can it be use will medicine
You should always, always check for herb-drug interactions with any herb or medication. Used internally, cayenne acts as a blood thinner, so you need to avoid or use caution with blood thinning medications. Be sure to check with your doctor!
I haven't seen it sold fresh in any supermarket.
Usually it's dried in most markets. Sometimes you'll find it in natural food stores.
Do you sell the tincture
I don't sell the products except to clients as part of a consultation or sometimes local people in my community. But you can purchase it from HerbPharm or Gaia Herbs, I'm pretty sure!
How do you make the tincture?

Please wash it first, really well. Then I'd use some strong antimicrobial spray (which you can also make). Then sprinkle the cayenne if it's still bleeding. If it becomes infected....to the doc you go, just in case---and you may need a check for rabies, depending on how well you know the dog, etc.

You started to say that you recently started taking the tincture 2x a day; but never got to why you started that routine. Can you elaborate?
Absolutely! I started this as an additional support to my cardiovascular system. I manage my hbp naturally, so this is another great tool!
Does the higher hotness mean better results? I don’t like super hot. I’m like a mild Taco Bell hot sauce kinda girl!
Not necessarily. In fact, my best results with my own back and my friends anc clients have come with 60K to 90K heat units.
