Known Uses:

Ingestion of capsaicin, the most researched constituent in cayenne, is said to stimulate blood flow to the brain, digestive organs, and skin (Haas & Levin, 2006).

Cayenne has been used for conditions of poor peripheral circulation leading to coldness or insufficient circulation and function in the extremities, and for those prone to chilblains (Hoffmann, 2003).

Cayenne may increase satiety.

Cayenne may also support blood sugar balance.

By blood sugar balance, satiety, or effects on metabolism, C. annuum in various forms has been reputed to assist in healthy weight loss.

A review of clinical and animal studies over the last three decades concluded that C. annuum and capsaicin have demonstrated hypolipidemic, hypotensive, and blood sugar balancing effects, and an antiobesity effect in which its “[e]fficacy was partially the same as some antiobesity drugs” (Sanati et al., 2018).

Cayenne has many actions directly related to cardiovascular protection. Rich in flavonoids, cayenne is believed to be a valuable antioxidant, protecting cell health, particularly in the circulatory system, and reducing platelet adhesion (Lininger et al., 1998). In models of high-fat diet, it has been shown to lower blood fat levels, possibly decreasing risk of atherosclerosis (Haas & Levin, 2006).

Capsaicin taken in capsules, 4 mg daily, for 3 months significantly improved risk factors of coronary heart disease, specifically in individuals with low high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (Qin et al., 2017).

Another study, 4 weeks long, on metabolic and arterial function found that consuming cayenne may reduce resting heart rate and increase effective myocardial perfusion pressure time, which is a predictor of heart attack survival, in men (Ahuja et al., 2007).
