Now I love spicy food but you guys are *sick*. ;-).
Seriously though hot peppers have been proven to be healthy in many respects.
First note that just about all hot peppers come from warm climates. It seems
contradictory but the reason is that the peppers make you sweet which actually
helps to cool your body down and thats the origional reason for their
popularity.
Other studies have shown a rise in matabolism as Shawn mentioned. Others say
they are good for your colon because they help stimulate your body to rid
itself of toxins which might be good for preventing cancer.
Of course Eggs were once good for you, then they were bad, and now they are
good for you again so who knows what they are going to say next. It all just
depends on which scientist you are listening to and whos payroll they are
on(1).

wonder.
