This review is from: The Healing Power of Cayenne Pepper: Complete Handbook of Cayenne Home Remedies (Paperback)

In response to the previous negative review that no analysis info is included in the book --- of course there isn't. This is one of the wonderful and highly effective ways of using alternative wholistic means to boost your health. Who do you think is going to do an expensive study on it? We all know just how much money large industry would make on Cayenne Pepper. Thankfully, this author is (one of the few) spreading the good word.

This review is from: The Healing Power of Cayenne Pepper: Complete Handbook of Cayenne Home Remedies (Paperback)

This book, the title of which hints comprehensive knowledge, summarizes a great deal of history and knowledge in a few paragraphs using generalities and hear-say as evidence of the healing power of certain peppers. Of the 112 pages, there are 7 pages listing product distributors, 28 pages of recipes (many of which are not "raw food" delivery tools for the peppers into the human body), 33 pages of listings summarizing what cayenne pepper supposedly can do for a variety of health conditions, 10 pages of a general condemnation of the American health care system and American eating habits, and a few pages of trivia about cayenne. If you are well-read in the area of alternative medicine or you have extensive personal experience in treating yourself using alternative methods, you can give this book a miss. The book's back cover best describes how empty this book is of any real value in understanding the healing power of cayenne pepper. It reads: "Discover the healing powers of cayenne pepper for yourself." After reading the book, that's exactly the result -- one is left with that mission to "figure it out yourself" because this book was little help in providing any understanding. On the up side: if you are a novice to alternative medicine, this cursory glance at the use of cayenne pepper may provide some useful insight.
