Herbal Quick Clot

[Phil]

From The People's Pharmacy;
Both Cayenne pepper and Black pepper work as blood clotting agents ( Page 604) also on their website.
There are a number of accounts of using black pepper but the shortest one is this.
Soon after reading about black pepper I cut myself opening a letter.I immediately plunged my finger into a small tin of black pepper and in an instant the bleeding stopped.It didn't burn or hurt.
A longer account reports the size of the cut across the ball of a thumb to have been down to the bone and 3 inches long,the bleeding stopped immediately and the pain a couple of minutes later.Treatment at ER was so painful,he left and put more black pepper in the wound to once again stop the bleeding which had restarted due to ER treatment and bandaged it up again.The wound healed,unstiched and without a scar, no sepsis occurred at all.
