Cayenne Info for David the Beloved

[Guest guest]

David, Sorry this took so long, been busy. To answer your question:

Our capsules are the double 0 size ("00"), and we make them ourselves. I do not know how many MGs are in one of these (I'm sure I should but don't!)---can anyone else help us with that one please?---I also took (and take) a 1000mg garlic oil capsule (from Azure Standard) each am & pm daily, as well as Gingko & Astralagus. I did try Aloe Vera Juice and it did help, but did not stop/cure it. After a few weeks of cayenne, garlic, etc., it just seemed to go away. In fact now it's even hard to remember how bad it felt! I also remember that when I started using OTC antacids (my doc gave me Tums) the acid problem was worse on each occasion. A friend of ours stopped her acid reflux by drinking 1 oz. shots of ACV about eight to ten times per day. Everyone's different to some extent. Hope this helps. Bob.

Thanks Bob, I got Cayenne in 450 mg. I tried raw garlic but it burns so bad I can't take it. I'll get some of the softgels like you used. I'm taking 1000mg of Astragalus 3 times a day. I need to get the ginko. I'll to find a way to look into the capsule "00" size to see how many mgs they hold. Thanks for this info, I'm really hoping this helps. I was on Preacid, Nexium and Prilosec and it all seemed to backfire on me, so I'm not going that route again. (I wasn't on all of those at the same time.)sandyloopfarm wrote: David, Sorry this took so long, been busy. To answer your question: Our capsules are the double 0 size

I just joined this list and am a newbie here.

I have been dealing with acid reflux/indigestion for a long time. When

indigestion kicks in, I start coughing also. Bought Digestive enzyme

caps which allowed me to keep my food down - doesn't fix the problem

though. Have an alternative solution - maybe.

 

Just recently I tried peppermint tea with surprising results. I start

out the day with a cup and then have a cup after each meal. Haven't

had to take the enzyme caps since. One thing I did notice is that the

minute I start drinking the tea - indigestion is gone immediately. Its

been a couple of weeks.

 

Has anybody else tried peppermint tea for this problem?

occasionally I have used the tea. I used to have a beautiful organic herb garden and I'm starting it again but I grew various mint plants and used them for cooking also which helped. see another recent post about a book called the "yeast connection". the peppermint tea may be helping the symptom but its better to fix the cause of course. more often than not eliminating things from your diet will fix it altogether as was the case for me. I had etrrible, actually debilitating heartburn, nausea gas, bloating and then some until I read that book and corrected my diet signifigantly. have not had heartburn since. I couldn’t dream of eating hot peppers before reading that and now I'd eat cherry peppers daily if I could! any spicy food and no more trouble! also, once I balanced my system out with the diet change I was able to eat anything literally I wanted in moderation. before I lived on the bad stuff which caused the problem. its worth looking into even if the tea is helping. good luck

Thanks for this information. I've changed my diet quite a bit, but alot of damage has been done to my esophagus and the entrance to the stomach.

I have been using slippery elm in as a tea but only twice a day, with marshmellow one time a day. I'll do it more often. I drink it hot, and then there's the thick "snot" you mentioned, but I just swallow it figuring that as thick as it is it should coat the area I want healed. I had 3 horrible ulcers and as they healed something happened and my esophagus became really inflamed, as well as the entrance to the stomach. After being able to get off all heart medications and anti depresants,etc. this is a real bummer to feel like this.never_again_ <never_again_ wrote: David, If you have changed your diet to the point where the stomach is balanced and producing the proper enzymes, and you are dealing more with the effect of years of damage, I would suggest slippery elm bark. Slippery elm bark is wonderfully healing for any part of the digestive tract. It's very muscilagenous, providing a coating to any mucous membranes. I make a tea using slippery elm bark, hibiscus (adds flavor and a nice color) and a little bit of honey. The tea can be sipped warm or cold, but it works better to sip it throughout the day. Here's how I make the tea. I take 4 Tbls. of slippery elm bark, processing it just a little in my "coffee" grinder. It shreds it rather than powdering it. You don't want to process it too much or the grinder will start to heat up the bark. The point is to just break down the bark a little. I put the slippery elm in a 2-quart container with 2-4 Tbls. of hibiscus (just depends on how strong you like the hibiscous). I fill the container with cool, clean water, cover and let sit overnight.

Strain in the morning. Add a little honey if needed. Because it's so muscilagenous, I find it helps to do graduated strainings, starting with a large-hole strainer, and working down to a fine strainer. It takes some time and patience to get it to strain. When you're done, you should end up with a liquid "tea" that's just a bit thicker than plain water, but definitely not gel-like. If it's too thick, you used too much slippery elm. This stuff can get almost snot-like. If it does, dilute with water. It should be pleasant to drink, not digusting...lol. My daughter and her acoustic guitar club used this when they rented a recording studio to record a CD. They were singing all day (8-10 hours). The members that kept sipping the tea weren't even hoarse at the end of the day. It's great for sore throats, irritation of the

esophagus and stomach, ulcers, inflamed colon, irritation to the anus due to diarrhea. Just remember, this is a way to sooth the irritation. It is not a way to fix the problem.

You need to be very careful about making this hot because heat can

destroy some of the properties. Make sure that you're not boiling

it at all. You might try making it thinner and just sipping on it

rather than drinking down a thick cup of it.

 

When you make it with the hibiscus, it's a very pleasant tea to

sip. I really enjoy it as a cold tea. When I need it, I just keep

a glass of it handy and sip on it. The idea is to just keep the

mucous membranes coated.

Okay, I made it, but without the hibiscus simply because I don't have it on hand. I have the slippery elm shavings and some honey. It's not bad tasting at all. I think so much damage has been done to the esophagus by the acid reflux that it's going to take some time to heal. If this works I have enough slippery elm to make another 2 quarts on hand. I've regerated the thick mucasy stuff to swallow to off and on during the day.never_again_ <never_again_ wrote: You need to be very careful about making this hot because heat can destroy some of the properties.
