Which CAYENNE for heart, healing etc - the VERY HOT cayenne, or the MILD paprika?

I'd just like to clarify, when cayenne is mentioned for all sorts of health benefits - do you have something different in the USA that you call cayenne? What WE call cayenne in Australia is a VERY HOTt powder, quite similar to chilli powder.

Do you really give soemone who may be havign a heart attack, a tea made of 1 teaspoon of such a HOT pepper? That's enough to make an entire meal hot - how could someone tolerate it when they are feeling deathly ill?

Or is it a different pepper powder you are using - what we call paprika, which is the powder made fform a sweet red pepper (capsicum)? Tweet
