Okay, we're going to make tinctures together so ya'll can learn how and why. This is not hard, and you need to get over your pride to go buy a cheap vodka to make your tincture.
We're going to make Cayenne Tincture.
The variety of colors found in chili peppers contain thousands of bioflavinoids and carotenoids which may be responsible for the healing properties of cayenne and they heal heart cells and protect your heart. There are vitamins in cayenne that will destroy bacteria and enhance your immune system. There is also no other herb that will increase your blood flow faster than cayenne.
According to Dr. Richard Schulze, an internationally recognized herbalist, “there is no other herb stronger or more effective than cayenne to make immediate physiological and metabolic changes in the body.”
Capsaicin, has been proven to protect your DNA and cells from attack by toxic molecules such as from tobacco, and other toxins. They can also prevent cancer by inhibiting the transformation of cells which eventually form cancer.
The following are just some of the conditions which cayenne may be used to treat: stops bleeding (internally or externally), allergies, arthritis, asthma, blood circulation problems, congestive heart failure, cancer prevention, heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, stroke, obesity, osteoarthritis, colds and flus, constipation, hemorrhoids, and diabetes.
You should keep a bottle of this cayenne tincture or bag the cayenne powder in your kitchen, the glove compartment of your cars, etc. as it can be life saving!!
Specific Remedies:
a.) For Health Maintenance: Put 5 drops in water or juice and drink it 1-3 times a day. You can slowly increase the dosage.
b.) For a bleeding wound: Liberally flush the wound with cayenne tincture or pack with cayenne powder and apply pressure to the wound.
- Depending on the severity of the bleeding, also take 1-10 dropper-fuls of the tincture in a few ounces of water in your mouth. Or just put directly into your mouth.
Cayenne Tincture Recipe
1.Find the hottest fresh peppers you can get your hands on. I like to use habaneros(but if you can get hotter ones, go for it). Get enough that so that you can fill at least a pint jar or a quart jar even when the peppers are chopped stems,seeds and all,in a food processor or if you want, put on rubber gloves and chop the peppers up fine. Don't use wet peppers you won't want water in the mixture. I don't wash mine.
2. Make sure the glass jar you're going to put the peppers in is clean and dry and that you will have a tight lid to put on(I make a gallon at a time, so I use old pickle jars, you may want to use a pint or a quart canning jar and lid)
3.Stuff your chopped up peppers in a jar appropriate for the amount you have no more than 3/4 full.
4. Cover the chopped peppers completely with vodka, you don't need to fill the jar completely, you want shaking room in there.
5. Put your jar in a dark warm place. Every day pick up the jar and shake it, then put it back. Do this for 3-6 weeks. If it's accidently longer, don't freak out, you will just have a stronger tincture, and that's not bad.
6. At the end of the 6 weeks, you will strain the liquid off into a clean dry jar. Ask your druggist if you can purchase at least one or more dark glass dropper bottles. Sometimes they will sell you some. You will be using the tincture by the drops or dropperfuls, so you will need a dropper for the cayenne tincture. If you can't find dropper bottles, you can buy just the droppers at Walmart .
Above the recipe is the instructions on how to use the tincture.
Enjoy!!
