Using Cayenne Pepper Capsules

A reader wrote in asking if it’s okay to use cayenne pepper capsules instead of mixing the cayenne pepper directly into the lemonade…
“Hi, I am wondering if I could take pure cayenne pepper capsules instead of putting the powder directly in my lemonade……. Please let me know! Thank you.”
While the master cleanse recipe says to mix cayenne pepper in with the lemonade, it’s okay to use cayenne pepper capsules if you have a hard time drinking the lemonade with cayenne pepper mixed in.
Just make sure you’re taking the capsules at the same time you’re drinking the lemonade, or a few minutes before and you should be fine.

I need to take the cayenne pepper capsules because I don’t like the taste in the lemonade, but I don’t know how many to take in a day. The capsules I have are 400mg of cayenne pepper in each. It sounds like a lot to take one with each 8 oz. of lemonade.
I am putting the Cayenne pepper in my lemonade drink and it seems to really burn my throat as I am drinking it. Is this normal?
im slightly allergic to spicy things so when I tried the drink (my fiance is on it right now) i had a small reaction. can you do the cleanse without the cayenne pepper & if so does it work as well? If not maybe I can take the capsules. your thoughts are very much appreciated
I have tried and tested the drink and agree that it does definately work although the spicy sensation is a bit off putting.I thought instead of eliminating the drink altogether and moving on to somethething else that may not be as beneficial ,that drinking it through a straw would be alot less shocking to my tastebuds everytime,i make sure it doesnt even touch my mouth and it goes straight down my throat.Maybe this will help as i would really give it the thumbs up.
First, I wish you would post the answers to all of these great questions.
On the cayenne pepper, I purchased 500 mg capsules and wondered if taking two every time you have a glass of lemonade was too much. It seems like if you are putting a 1/2 tsp in a whole days supply when mixing in the powder, then taking twelve 500mg capsules would be way to much…There was no specification on what mg the capsule should be when taking two.
Also, I am on day two and have been experiencing alot of phlegm in my throat, anything I can do.
