Chili Powder is a gastronomic term for a powder of various chilis or peppers, which can include cayenne peppers. There are a lot of different chili peppers, from the really tiny and murderous hot ones to the really large ones, the names of which I constantly forget because I tend to avoid chilis except for healing purposes! LOL! :)

I can't think of why chili would be bad for candida people. Hmm. Weird. If you find out let me know. All I know is Candida proliferates becauase of a weak digestion; spices help heat up the tummy to have better digestion, and cayenne especially has wonderful action on all mucosa tissues, helping to cleanse it of mucous, take away pain, increasing circulation.... the list is endless.
