Hi Bill!
Dr. Schulze says, "Cayenne Pepper, being used medicinally, must be 90,000+ Heat Units and taken in Tincture, FRESH or DRY Powdered Form (NOT Tablets/Pills).".
He also says, "What determines the potency of Cayenne is NOT the name it's called, but the INTENSITY of it's Heat, which is determined by the quantity of the POTENT Chemicals in Cayenne, Capsaicin, and it's Resins. The MORE of these Chemicals, that are in Cayenne, the HOTTER it is, and also the STRONGER and MORE EFFECTIVE, that it is in HEALING.
The Heat is measured in Heat Units, INCORRECTLY called B.T.U.'s (British Thermal Units) but CORRECTLY called Scoville Units, or just Heat Units. ALL Capsicum (cayenne) is rated between 0 and 300,000 Heat Units. Paprika has NO Heat and is rated 0 Heat Units. Most actual Cayenne Peppers are rated between 30,000 and 80,000. Jalapeno Peppers are between 50,000 and 80,000. Serrano Peppers are at about 100,000. African Bird Beppers are about 200,000 and Mexican Habaneros are between 250,000 and 300,000."
