Guest guest Posted December 22, 2002 Report Share Posted December 22, 2002 I don't have a remedy for the rosacea, I'm sorry. But it was my husband's experience that cayenne did not produce flareups of his lifelong rosacea - he took something called " Quinn's blend " which had 150,000 heat units cayenne in it, daily, and the only issue he had was a tiny bit of heartburn some days. He took this capsule for about 3 years with no ill effects. He was in his late 60's. His occasional flareups of rosacea were usually caused by too much sun exposure or too much stress. He also took Niacin for a bit after his heart surgery, but had too much trouble with the flushing and quit taking it. He used a cream prescribed by his doctor for the flareups, but I don't know the name of it and personally don't think it really helped.
