Capsaicin has legitimate biological and anti-inflammatory research behind it, but that is not the same as showing that an oral cayenne supplement reliably lowers serum urate or replaces established gout treatment. Treat dramatic supplement testimonials with caution and discuss supplements with a pharmacist or clinician, particularly if you take medicines.
