What is Cayenne?
Cayenne is a type of chili pepper, valued in traditional wellness practices for its warming properties, largely attributed to a compound called capsaicin.
What does "thermogenic" mean?
Thermogenic ingredients are associated with a mild, temporary increase in the body's heat production, which is thought to relate to calorie utilization. This is a well-known category in the natural weight-management space.
Why a measured dose?
AlkaMelt uses cayenne at a measured, well-tolerated dose alongside the rest of the formula, intended to work quietly in the background rather than produce an intense sensation — supporting the formula's overall goal of steady, non-jittery energy.

Safety considerations
Cayenne is generally well tolerated at the doses used in supplements. Those with sensitive digestion may notice mild warmth or discomfort.
