From the Back Cover

"Most doctors, even if they like to eat hot and spicy foods, do not know about the therapeutic properties of chile peppers. The authors of The Healing Powers of Peppers have done a monumental job of collecting that information and making it available in a readable, accessible form, complete with recipes."
--From the Foreword by Andrew T. Weil, M.D.

I like peppers. So did the person who wanted the book. He still eats almost as many peppers as I do. He didn't throw it at my head. I'm satisfied.

Awesome book

Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2013

Great job on the book. Well organized and great content. I am a big believer in the healing powers of peppers through generations of family experience. My family started a pepper farm over 100 years ago simply due to this. Now we also run a pepper product emporium to provide access to these sauces and extracts for consumption and healing. Check us out too @ [...]

This books needs to be read. I think it is out of print so bought two secondhand ones to learn what Chili can do for health.
It is a mind opener, have been able to stop prescribed painkillers with all their toxic side effects.
It is a good starter to learning the health benefits of chilli/cayenne, for arthritis, nerve pain, digestion, weight loss, depression, regain energy.
It is time for everyone with these problems to learn what far away people have known for thousands of years.
I had never known about this until I met a man who couldn't find Chili medication which he told me was the only thing hat had ever worked for him
Now I find you can get products, capsules, creams based on Chili and it really does work, no side effects for me. The medical profession had me on so many painkillers etc with side effects that would eventually destroy liver and kidneys.
More people need to know about this. Even my empathic dog has cheered up since I started Chili capsules.
