Truth to this---actually Capsicin, the heat-producing ingredient in peppers
has a lot of suspected medicinal value. You can buy Capsicin capsules to
take "for your heart health". I think what they do is increase the rate of
metabloism, dilate the blood vessels, and get everything "going" for a short
period of time after ingestion. Eating chilis is really good for loosening
up a cold or congestion. I like to sprinkle soup or whatever liberally with
red cayenne pepper when I need things loosened up.
