How Cayenne Pepper Can Stop a Heart Attack

In the event of you or a loved one having a heart attack, the first thing you’d do is call for an ambulance, but what if things go far south in the minutes between you placing your call and the emergency vehicle arriving? While this is a scary prospect for anyone, there’s one ingredient you’re likely to have in your home that can prevent a bad situation from getting worse.
 
To stop a heart attack or keep it from worsening, the person suffering it should be given cayenne pepper. It was herbalist John Christopher who made this incredible discovery. It was a long process of trial and error before he found an herbal formula that is effective – he tried about 50 different ones before settling on cayenne pepper.
He found that it can stop a heart attack in under a minute. Even if you find yourself located within the vicinity of a hospital, those minutes waiting for the ambulance to arrive could mean the difference between life and death, so it’s perhaps a good idea to always have this ingredient on hand in your home.
Cayenne pepper’s effectiveness comes from its Scoville unit content. Scoville units are the measurement used to determine how hot a particular kind of food is. Cayenne peppers contain at least 90,000 Scoville units.

The pepper should be administered to someone having a heart attack in powdered form. Stir a teaspoon of it into a glass of water and make them drink it. Should the person suffering the heart attack fall unconscious, a few drops of cayenne pepper placed underneath their tongue should suffice to stop the attack.
So how does it actually work?  Cayenne pepper rapidly increases a person’s heart rate, ensuring that their blood is carried to their extremities. It also helps balance their circulation, which can buy them the precious minutes they may need to stay alive until help arrives.

New system lets doctors see under patients' skin sans scalpel

Doctors could soon put down scalpels and peek under patients' skin, thanks to a new augmented reality system that displays internal anatomy right on the body, scientists say.
 

The system, called ProjectDR, allows medical images such as CT scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data to be displayed directly on a patient's body in a way that moves as the patient does.
 
"We wanted to create a system that would show clinicians a patient's internal anatomy within the context of the body," said a scientist.

Augmented reality (AR) is a live direct or indirect view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are "augmented" by computer-generated perceptual information.
 
The technology in the new system includes a motion tracking system using infrared cameras and markers on the patient's body, as well as a projector to display the images.
 
However, the really difficult part, the researcher said, is having the image track properly on the patient's body even as they shift and move.
 
The solution: custom software written by the researcher that gets all of the components working together.
 
"There are lots of applications for this technology, including in teaching, physiotherapy, laparoscopic surgery and even surgical planning," said the researcher, who developed the technology with fellow graduate student.
 
ProjectDR also has the capacity to present segmented images - for example, only the lungs or only the blood vessels - depending on what a clinician is interested in seeing.

Watts is working on refining ProjectDR to improve the system's automatic calibration and to add components such as depth sensors.
 
The next steps are testing the programme's viability in a clinical setting, said a professor.
 
"Soon, we will deploy ProjectDR in an operating room in a surgical simulation laboratory to test the pros and cons in real-life surgical applications," said the researcher.
