QUESTION = Hot Peppers, a Natural Alternative to COX In...

[Guest guest]

JoAnn,

How can capsaicin be used in a mouth spray when it delivers topical heat?

Also, wouldn't this throat spray burn your mouth, the same way eating a hot

pepper would?

Hot Peppers, a Natural Alternative to COX Inhibitor Drugs? JoAnn Guest

“We were working on a mouth spray to neutralize sore throat and mouth

pain since many pepper boost users were reporting this spray stopped

sore throat and canker sore pain. So our thought originally was to make

a new stronger version of pepper boost to be marketed as a throat spray.

But according to some of our preliminary users, they feel this new spray

reduced their overall aches and pains to almost nothing within about a

week. Of course they use the spray every hour on the hour to achieve

this effect, but it appears to be working,†says Perry.

 

Why would such a discovery help chronic pain sufferers afraid of modern

drugs that may be in question? While capsaicin has the ability to reduce

inflammation and pain, it also helps improve blood flow and circulation

thus preventing complications that can lead to heart attack and stroke.

Therefore if capsaicin could be delivered in a formula that didn't

include topical heat, it may be able to solve the daily suffering of

people facing chronic pain diseases such as arthritis.

 

Management at SiCap industries isn't sure if they'll be marketing their

future capsaicin throat spray as more than a mouth pain fighter, but

they are certain their new discovery will lead to a safe and comfortable

alternative for people suffering from daily chronic pain. And in this

time of public scrutiny concerning popular pain relievers, SiCap

Industries may be poised to capture a huge market that's feeling

completely alienated by the traditional pharmaceutical industry.

Hi Jan!

If you'll read on a little farther, it has the formula for this

preparation... (Purified Water; Capsicum; Sea Salt; Aloe Vera Gel;

Eucalyptus Oil; Vitamin C as Ascorbic Acid, and Rosemary Extract).

I would imagine that the Aloe Vera Gel takes the bite out of the

capsicum. That would be my first line of thought. Then too they may

not use the very hot varieties. There is a world of difference in

various strains, you know.

 

Here is a quote taken from the website which may help to explain the

mechanism of action. As you may know, I am not promoting this

product. I just discovered it on the web and thought it might be

helpful for someone in our groups. This formula is said to contain very little

capsicum. At least it isn't

linked to any of the more serious side effects present in other OTC

preparations.

 

" The secret of all-natural capsicum is that it has the ability to

render the natural chemical " Substance P " inactive. " Substance P " is

a chemical the human body releases in reaction to triggers such as

allergies to food, alcohol, or even the environment.

 

Once this Substance P is released, it irritates the sensitive nerve

fibers running throughout the head and sinus cavity causing painful

swelling that leads to congestion and headaches.

 

Because of how it works, capsaicin won't cause rebound headaches

like the average migraine medicine or OTC painkiller.

 

Instead of artificially shrinking the swelling as old fashioned

headache medicines do, The Sinus Buster actually " extinguishes " the

cause of the swelling and pain, so when it does wear off, there is

little if any " Substance P " left to cause a rebound effect. No other

headache remedies can do that.

 

Within seconds after first using our capsicum based formula, most

people experience instant relief, and best of all, it can be used as

needed. So it's perfect for minor sinus and allergy symptoms, but

it's also excellent for severe chronic congestion associated with

sinus infections and general head colds.

 

This all-natural formula is non-addictive, and doesn't have any of

the side effects of other known sinus allergy medications.

 

In order for the capsaicin to do its work, there must be enough

solution to cause a split second bite powerful enough to deactivate

the nerve fibers and other variables that are causing the congestion

and pain.

 

Because the blood vessels inside your nose are so sensitive to

capsaicin, only the smallest amount is needed to do the job.

 

Our formula has so little capsicum that even a good squirt directly

in the eye causes only mild discomfort -- similar to getting a mild

soap in your eye. But when you introduce that same amount of

capsicum into the nasal cavity, the results are astounding.

 

That's why medicating through the nose is the quickest path to

relieving a headache. The nerve fibers running along those blood

vessels are the same fibers that cause swelling and pain as a

reaction to allergy triggers and other environmental factors. The

capsaicin instantly relieves this swelling and pain for up to 12

hours.

 

The exhilarating bite is not a burn -- this formula is non-caustic

and non-addictive.

 

The author says:

I've actually tested it in my eyes, and it causes only mild

discomfort, less than if you got soap in your eyes. Yet when you

introduce the capsicum to the blood vessels in your nose, the

feeling is quite powerful. In fact, it's quite similar to the

sensation felt when you catch a little whiff of black pepper up your

nose while cooking or seasoning your food -- only a bit stronger.

 

At first, you may even feel as if you might sneeze. This activating

bite lasts for only (2-3 seconds), and you'll feel the formula

instantly go to work on your sinus. A person's sensitivity to the

capsicum really depends on the person. Many people who've tried this

formula feel no bite whatsoever while others are more sensitive.
