Medicine is based on old Aztec/Mayan Herbal Cures

Almost ALL of modern medicine is based on old Aztec/Mayan herbal cures. The Aztecs and Mayas had amazing medical technology based on plants. For almost everything in big pharma now, there is a plant based original that is far far better than the big pharma cure. The only mainstream things modern medicine has that is unique to itself is mold/fungus based antibiotics, the first of which was penicillin, and vaccines. Those are big ones, but I think they pale when compared to all the other medicines that came straight from the Indian civilizations of the Americas.

I recently had a huge discovery on this topic

Before the common core and outcome based education scams were pushed on America, (you know, back when education was real) American schools taught the origins of "modern medicine" and that all of the medicines, from blood pressure to pain relief to skin infection cures, basically everything out there, originated with plants the former American civilizations used. American medical companies went to Latin America, consulted the traditional medicine men, found out what plants did what, then isolated the compounds in those plants that actually had medical value, and then would NEVER, AND I MEAN EVER, release that "newly discovered cure" to the public until they figured out a way to synthesize the compounds in industrial processes (rather than get them from plants.) Once they figured out how to manufacture the compounds, they could then patent them and charge huge amounts for medicines, which in their original plant form were usually incredibly inexpensive and to top it all off usually worked better in plant form.

CAYENNE PEPPER THE HEALING POWER

Dr. Patrick Quillin  "Cayenne pepper - prized for thousands of years for its healing power.  Folklore from around the world recounts amazing results using cayenne pepper in simple healing and in baffling health problems. But cayenne pepper is not just a healer from ancient history.
Recent clinical studies have been conducted on many of the old-time health applications for this miracle herb. Again and again, the therapeutic value of cayenne pepper has been medically validated."
In a recent letter to the editors of the New England Journal of Medicine, three Italian doctors describe how they were able to reduce patients' reported dyspepsia symptoms by more than half -  by prescribing red pepper powder. In a study of 30 patients with  functional dyspepsia, half of the participants received a placebo, while the other half took 2.5 grams of red pepper powder each day (divided into capsules taken before each of three meals). Both groups took their respective treatments for five weeks, and rated their symptoms each day on a scale of zero  to three (higher scores indicated more severe symptoms). By the third week, the red pepper group showed a significant advantage over the control group. And by week five, the pepper group's symptoms had declined 60 percent from their baseline scores - while the control group's scores had only decreased about half as much. The symptom scores included ratings for pain, a feeling of fullness, nausea, and an overall score. The red pepper powder produced significant gains in all four areas.
Many herbalists believe that Cayenne is the most useful and valuable herb in the herb kingdom, not only for the entire digestive system, but also for the heart and circulatory system. It acts as a catalyst and increases the effectiveness of other herbs when used with them.
Cayenne is a medicinal and nutritional herb.  It is a very high source of Vitamins A and C, has the complete B complexes, and is very rich in organic calcium and potassium, which is one of the reasons it is good for the heart.

Digestion
Cayenne can rebuild the tissue in the stomach and the peristaltic action in the intestines.  It aids elimination and assimilation, and helps the body to create hydrochloric acid, which is so necessary for good digestion and assimilation, especially of proteins.  All this becomes very significant when we realize that the digestive system plays the most important role in mental, emotional and physical health, as it is through the digestive  system that the brain, glands, muscles and every other part of the body are fed.

Heart
Cayenne has been known to stop heart attacks within 30 seconds.  For example, when a 90-year-old man in Oregon had a severe heart attack, his daughter was able to get Cayenne extract into his mouth.  He was pronounced dead by the medics, but within a few minutes, he regained consciousness.  On the way to the hospital, he remained in a semi-conscious state, but the daughter kept giving him the Cayenne extract.  By the time they got  to the hospital, he had fully recovered and wanted to go home and mow the lawn.  The doctor asked what she had given him, as he said it was the closest thing to a miracle he had ever seen.
