Capsaicin capsules lowered an inflammation marker in the blood, and capsaicin cream rubbed on the skin eases the pain of worn joints. The gap is in the form: that evidence comes from capsules and creams, not from the half teaspoon you stir into a pan.<\/p>\n<p>Paprika brings the colour instead. Capsanthin and the other red pigments in it are antioxidants, and drying concentrates them. In a trial against a dummy pill, paprika extract capsules made skin slower to redden under ultraviolet light than the dummy pill did. Redness under ultraviolet light is inflammation in the skin, so that counts, though it came from concentrated capsules again rather than from the jar. Keep both jars in a dark cupboard away from the hob, because light and heat fade the red, and the pigments go with it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Neither cayenne pepper nor paprika is less inflammatory than the other: both score 2 on the inflammation scale.
