Cayenne Plus
Indiana Botanic Gardens
Overview
Cayenne Plus is a blend of several herbs traditionally used for diverse health benefits, including circulation support. While some individual ingredients have shown potential benefits in various studies, including anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, there is limited evidence to support the effectiveness of this specific combination. The product's efficacy is further limited by the lack of clinical trials on the finished product and potentially suboptimal dosing of individual ingredients.
The Good

Includes herbs with potential anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties.
Traditional use supports potential benefits for circulation.
The Bad
Potential interactions with medications due to Goldenseal content.
Risk of herb-induced liver injury (HILI) from Scullcap.
