Crystalline Capsaicin Powder – Pure & Natural – Derived From Specialty Peppers

More than 3500 grams sold on eBay since 2017 and all with 100% buyer satisfaction. Add extreme heat to anything without the extract taste found in most products that are fortified for extra heat. Crystalline Capsaicin powder will add intense heat with absolutely no taste or smell of its own, unlike oleoresin extracts that have a rather unpleasant and very noticeable taste. This crystalline product is extremely soluble in alcohol and soluble in oils such as olive oil with application of gentle warming. It is soluble in all foods but will require maintaining heat at the melting point of around 150° F to fully integrate. Crystalline Capsaicin is not water soluble. Be aware the heat level of crystalline capsaicin approaches 16 million SHU (Scoville Heat Units). Compare this to Jalapeño pepper at 5 thousand SHU or Carolina Reaper (the hottest pepper on the planet) at up to 2.2 million SHU. Please be advised there is no such thing as 16 million SHU capsaicin commonly offered on the internet. It doesn’t exist. Even analytical standard capsaicin is only guaranteed to be 15,760,000 SHU… and that’s at a cost of more than $3800 per gram. Ours runs 20,000 to 40,000 less on the Scoville scale than the analytical standard grade. The variation depends on the percentage of lesser capsaicinoids that are present in all natural capsaicins. Crystalline Capsaicin dissolved in alcohol and applied a drop at the time will add pure heat to anything from ice cream to apple pie. Add to any favorite condiments, food or even mixed drinks without altering the taste or aroma. If there’s a salsa or sauce taste you absolutely love but wish it was hotter, this is the perfect solution. Capsaicin also has a rich history of health and pain relief benefits but science is discovering even more advanced uses. Search for a study entitled “Topical capsaicin for pain management: therapeutic potential and mechanisms of action of the new high-concentration capsaicin 8% patch” published in the British Journal of Anaesthesia to begin researching this aspect. This is a totally different therapy from the usual topical creams that are typically in the range of 0.025% to 0.1% capsaicin.
