Cayenne Pepper

If you like spice, you're probably familiar with the cayenne pepper. The long, thin, bright red Capsicum annuum is a member of the Solanaceae family. It's related to other capsicums, including sweet bell peppers, jalapenos, poblanos, serranos, and the notoriously spicy ghost peppers. While not nearly as hot as the ghost pepper, the cayenne pepper still packs quite a punch.

The cayenne pepper is said to originate from Cayenne, French Guiana. It's commonly dried and ground into a fine powder. It's also used fresh in many recipes. It grows around the world in places such as India, East Africa, Mexico, and certain areas of the United States. In addition to being delicious, it adds a touch of heat to your food and provides some remarkable health benefits.

Cayenne peppers, like other spicy peppers, have capsaicin, the compound that gives them their heat. Applied topically, capsaicin can help to alleviate pain by reducing the amount of a neuropeptide known as substance P that travels to the brain to signal pain. With less substance P, feelings of pain decrease.

Psoriasis is an autoimmune condition that causes itchy, scaly, red patches on the skin. While there is currently no cure, topical capsaicin creams can help to reduce itching and improve the skin's appearance.

Capsaicin increases the amount of heat that your body produces, giving a slight boost to your metabolism and causing you to burn slightly more calories. It's also somewhat effective in reducing hunger, causing you to eat less throughout the day.

Capsaicin stimulates the nerves in your stomach that send signals for protection against injury. The pepper may help to increase the production of digestive fluid, send enzymes to the stomach to aid in digestion, and provide extra protection to the stomach against infections.

Based on animal studies, capsaicin may help to reduce high blood pressure, which also reduces the risk of developing heart disease.

Some studies show that capsaicin can slow cancer cell growth. It may even be able to kill cancer cells for certain types of cancer, including prostate, skin, and pancreatic.

Cayenne peppers are safe to eat, and are a delicious, spicy addition to many dishes. Eating too many, however, can cause some unwanted side effects, such as an upset stomach or heartburn. If you're sensitive to spice, you may also feel an uncomfortable burning sensation in your mouth.

Cayenne pepper may adversely interact with certain medications, such as: Blood thinners, Aspirin, Antacids, ACE Inhibitors
