Cayenne pepper works so well topically, better than those “Icy Hot” patches and creams. It works well internally as well for inflammation and gut health. After all the gut is the root of most afflictions…
“Some evidence suggests that spicy peppers are good for an achy (or stuffy) head. “When you’re stuffed up, spicy foods can help clear the congestion,” Supan says. And if your head is pounding, spicy chili or tacos may help. “Cayenne peppers have also been shown to help relieve headaches,” she says.”
Capsaicin is also used in topical form to treat pain. Creams made from the potent spice can be rubbed on your skin to treat arthritis pain.”
