My husband and I and several friends have read this book, and we found it very interesting and have started a regimine of the Cayenne, along with Lecithin. My cholesterol count went from 241 down to 174 within three weeks! This is a wonderful alternative to the basic statin drugs!! I am amazed at the results...my doctor was too!
Thanks

Dr Heinerman gets to the point regarding the various conditions and issues readers may wish to address concerning the benefits of cayenne pepper. For it's size, this book is packed with amazing remedies. Total value for the money. So affordable, you may consider buying a dozen to give to people you care about. It's a nice complement for the book, "Left For Dead", (my cayenne discovery book about 3 years ago). Since then,I've learned by taking cayenne and garlic I don't need prescription drugs that I was on for heart disease after by-pass in '97. What's great about that is losing the side-effects, plus being able to use food, and other herbs, spices, and seeds, (which I couldn't consider while on drugs) be my medicine. Be encouraged, this is a great discovery and, hopefully, soon you too will have testimonies to tell. A. Prouty

Very sparse information and most of it from others
I cannot review this because there was little information I had not already read from other sources. It is not a book--it is a pamphlet masquerading as a book

This booklet is ok but it's mostly a list of ailements and stories on how cayenne helped, some are backed by research, some are just hearsay, still it gives some pointers..

Cayenne, everyone should use
Good resource for those that want to learn the uses of Cayenne. As we age, we should all look towards more natural remedies instead of letting the drug companies dictate to us. Read more
