If you metabulism can handle it, take all you can. I use to eat Jalepeno peppers, or any other kind of pepper that I could get my hands on. My system has changed, and have had to cut back dramatically. I can feel them go through my entire system, and when they come out, I definitely know it.

I still grow Jalepeno, Cayenne, Habenaro, and anything else I can get my hands on. However, the days of walking through the garden and casually chewing one or two of each variety are long gone.

The cayenne powder has been intersting. I have not taken it in huge quantities, but no impact has been noticed yet. I don't know if I'm taking an equivalent amount as compared to eating them, or the commercial stuff isn't as potent as I grow.

To answer your question after such a long digression, I've never known anyone who eats hot peppers have problems with internal linings. On the other hand, if you have an stomach ulcer, you are going to know it.

Anyway, I hope this was somewhat helpful.

P.S. Whole raw garlic is great to munch on also.

Yes, I did...ggg. I am happy for your success
in shifting your symptoms~!

No, your body will tell you when you have reached
a limit where you need to back off of the cayenne.
It can vary although if you have become used to
it, you will not notice the heat at all and can
tolerate a lot. I think I discovered my limit at
1-2 teaspoons in a glass of the lemonade. Once it
begins to burn coming out the other end, I know
its time to back off. If I feel any kind of blockage
at all, I dose with liquid cayenne tincture in water
and probably should do that more, not because I have
blockages, but because it is so healing relative
to regenerating tissue etc.

I really try to use cayenne a lot in my everyday
food. You need to add it after cooking though as
heat affects its medicinal properties. All my
pepper shakers are now filled with cayenne and I
shake it on eggs, salads, and rice etc. I just made
about 4 quarts of kimchi which is fermented with
cayenne and ginger and garlic, so another yummy
way to get cayenne in. The lemonade is a wonderful
cayenne delivery system...ggg. Do not worry though
that you are in any way harming yourself. There is
tons of info online to reassure you. Do peek into
Risingsun's Cayenne Research Blog and of course
Dr. Schulze and Dr. Christopher promote it. I have
heard it said if you could only pick ONE herb, that
you can do no better than cayenne for its overall
benefits. I have a love affair with it and am
really glad I was exposed to its benefits.

Here is another fabulous link~~!
