Don't see too much on the forums here regarding capsicum/capsaicin or "hot" foods like chilis, peppers, sauces, etc.
Aside from maybe some indigestion or heartburn, spicy stuff generally isn't something I've noticed to have any big negative effect.
What about long term? Daily use? Some cultures down endless spicy stuff regularly and don't have gut issues or serious health issues over years usually. But some people really seem to get messed up from a little hot foods and get sick and stuff.
Does Ray Peat weigh in on this?
Would be good to know more of the pros/cons/etc. spelled out better. I'm eating spicy sardines now.
