Here's a fluke. I live in the northeast and have lost quite a bit of
weight recently. The meds and stress, mostly all that manic energy : )

I am driving my husband and coworkers nuts with how cold I am all the
time. I am not happy unless the heat is on 84 degrees!

I have a space heater under my desk at work.

My sister the self help person to the extreme, suggested I start taking
Cayenne pepper tablet with garlic to raise my metabolism and make me
warmer.

Am I going to affect my meds, will it actually help, or am I just
ingesting a little curry in a pill at every meal.

Any feedback is welcome.

Dear julez,

I will research this cayenne pepper connection, but raising your
metablism I think would make one feel colder.. Anyway, I am always cold
and eat haot, spicy foods all the time!

Peace,

I once knew a person who's mother would put cayenne pepper in her and
her brother's mouth when they were bad. OUCH! Is that abuse? Seem's
like it to me, but this was almost 20 years ago.

***Cayenne acts like a stimulant...be careful, could
make you real manic...not to mention a sore anus ***

Suggest you go to your medical doctor and get your thyroid checked.

Dr. Depak Chopra says that cayenne will increase your metabolism 25%, far
more than exercise will (the rest of day not while you're doing it) so it is
good for weight loss. Maybe it does increase my mania but as long as it's
not too much I don't mind. Need to have energy. right now I'm on a cleaning
binge but that always entails shopping $50 shelf unit when going to buy 3$
bottle of Pine- Sol and new little rugs and so on. But the house is looking
great. clutter in trash when SO isn't looking. Te-he
