A good fit for Comparing a clearly identified whole-fruit cayenne capsule in the larger pack.
- The manufacturer identifies 500 mg cayenne fruit per capsule and distinguishes the heat-unit reference from the ingredient mass.
- The manufacturer 250-capsule SKU 4627 and UPC 733739046277 match the selected Amazon model.
- A cellulose capsule shell is listed separately from the whole-fruit ingredient.
Pepper heat and whole-fruit mass do not establish a weight-loss benefit. The retailer uses an older botanical name that differs from the current manufacturer page, so the received label needs checking.

The details that matter.
- Ingredient and botanical wording
- Whole cayenne fruit; current manufacturer says Capsicum annuum, while retailer text says Capsicum frutescens
- Declared amount
- 500 mg per capsule
- Heat reference
- 40,000 heat units; not a capsaicin mass
- Checked pack
- 250 vegetable capsules
- Manufacturer identity
- SKU 4627; UPC 733739046277
- Capsule shell
- Hypromellose / cellulose
- This link selects the 250-capsule bottle rather than the previously pictured 100-capsule pack.
- Compare the received botanical and allergen label: the retailer uses older Capsicum frutescens wording, while the manufacturer currently lists Capsicum annuum for the same model family.
- Consider sensitivity to pungent pepper and discuss medicines, pregnancy or breastfeeding with an appropriate clinician.
- A large bottle is a pack quantity, not evidence for prolonged use or a validated supplement cycle.
Cycling & duration.
Ingredient timeframes describe the cited preparation; they do not establish a cycle for every finished formula.
Cayenne
- On/off pattern
- No validated on/off schedule identified.
- Duration & evidence
- A capsaicin weight-maintenance trial lasted 3 months and did not limit weight regain. Its preparation is not interchangeable with whole-fruit cayenne capsules.
- When to review
- Review whether the intended benefit is evidenced, and reassess use if burning, reflux or digestive pain occurs.
- Neither the study period nor a capsule label establishes a useful fat-loss cycle or a minimum break. Culinary pepper is a different exposure.
