Cayenne Pepper Salve
Capsicum annuum
Cayenne Pepper, a member of the nightshade family, contains capsaicin. Capsaicin is very beneficial and supports both the immune and cardiovascular system. It has been used for inflammation, ulcers, circulation, boosts metabolism, nerve and joint pain. Cayenne pepper salve may have many benefits, including pain relief, increased blood circulation, and anti-inflammatory properties:
Pain relief
Cayenne pepper contains capsaicin, an active compound that may assist with pain by reducing the amount of substance P in the body. Substance P is a chemical that carries pain messages to the brain, so when there's less of it, pain messages don't reach the brain and you feel relief. Cayenne pepper salve may help with pain from many conditions, including:
1) Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis
2) Joint or muscle pain from fibromyalgia
3) Nerve pain from shingles and other painful skin conditions
4) Post-herpetic neuralgia
5) Bruises
6) Period pain
