You said you tried 1/4 tsp. and it was way too much, but your recipe calls for 1/2 tsp. I don't understand. How is 1/2 tsp less than 1/4 tsp?

I was in the midst of leading up to a second excruciating cluster headache and this did the trick. Got rid of it in about an hour. I made it extra strong though - soaking the tea infuser for a whole minute. Deadly but effective. Thanks so much.

Hz0, 1 tb. Kosher salt, 1/2 t. baking soda) + I heated 20 shakes of cayenne in 1/2 the water in the microwave. It got nice and pink. Naturally there was floaty stuff, but I strained this through a paper towel into the bottle I use and it came out clear of pepper dust. Then I made the rest of the mix as usual. I was very excited to use this because I was also recovering from a head cold, and felt miserable. I put some in my hand and snorted -- it felt hot, but there was instant relief and my head started to drain. Last night my head started to plug up again and I tried the cayenne rinse again and within the hour my head was clear. This stuff is like dynamite on plugged up sinuses. And better still, you can make it yourself! Thanks Brad. I wouldn't have had the nerve to try it myself. :) Hi Brad, I made a variation on yours (16 oz. Hz0, 1 tb. Kosher salt, 1/2 t. baking soda)

I love the neti pot and experimented with some essential oils mixed into my basic sea salt mixture (this was a bit harsh, so I saved it for bad congestion days only!) This sounds like a better option. I've discovered a few other uses for red pepper over the years. Pepper sauce, like Tobasco, does a great job cutting through grease. Next time you work on a car and get all gunked-up, put a little hot sauce on your hands and watch the grime melt away. The other use I recently discovered is making a cockroach repellent using pepper sauce. Mix 2 tablespoons of Tobasco with 1 quart of water. Put it into a pump bottle and spray onto surfaces where you want to deter roaches. Works like a charm (but wear a mask when you spray!!!) Thanks for the great tip!
