It was a rabbit hole of information once I started researching this topic. Some incredible studies are ongoing at the moment. If there is interest, I will make a follow up video in the future with some of the results the current studies.
a follow up video would be fun to see. this one was great!
Yes! the more information the better!
Really interesting subject! 👍👍
Yes, definitely love the information. I tend a nerd out on these kinds of things.
Please make 🙏
I had a really bad case of food poisoning during a visit to Thailand. I had stuff coming out of me at both ends for hours and hours. After I was emptied, my stomach was very jittery and all I was able to get down for almost 4 days was water and maybe a couple of bananas. At that point, I was very hungry and finally had to force myself to some food. I chose a dish that I didn't think would be too spicy. Was I wrong! It was very hot but being starved, I managed to get about 4 tablespoons of rice with the sauce into me. Ten minutes later, I was 100% cured! Hot food really does settle the stomach!
Glad to hear all the benefits of chilis since I'm a chili addict. I didn't grow up on it but came to love it as an adult. My mother always says I'm skinny (I'm 122 lbs at 5'10") because of all the hot food I eat. Who cares? I feel great!
After more than 3 Years of suffering of reflux, Pepperonis and chilli makes me like new.
Crazy! It’s always nice to hear that something enjoyable to eat can also have so many positive impacts on your body!
I love Tabasco 🔥
Now that I'm eating healthy, I like to add this to my fresh tomato juice.
I was eating the second half of my cayenne chilli pepper when watching this video. I'm eating chilli everyday now, and i like it more and more. I think they are good for me, that's why i support this video
Fact 6 explains why I'm one of the rare people who experiences burn when I pee after eating extremely hot peppers. Also I melt my face off at least one meal a day and I've only been sick twice with a cold since 2009. I'm 52 years old so I joke with people saying that I've already caught everything at my age! The truth may very well be the herbs and spices and hot peppers I eat daily. Just saying.
I have had a similar experience. I eat a lot of "spicy" food and add my own hot spices. Also lots of garlic, Greek olive oil and butter. Really strong health, despite stress. I was sick twice this year and couldn't do anything. It felt like a bad flu. Had the Corona finally caught up with me? This was the first serious infection in 10 years. First time in January 2023 and then again in April 2023, which is quite unusual for me.
Do you drink alcohol ever?
@@zakrios7389 daily.....why ask that?
I have been eating hot chiles in some form in my food for decades. I am super healthy at 73 years young.
Been eating them all my life. I almost never get sick. 💯
Right then, gonna start popping a Bhut Jolokia along with my daily multi-vitamin. Sorted.
I was not aware of all these health benefits. Maybe (one day) being a chile eater will reduce our insurance costs lol. Thank you for doing all the researching condensing it down. I now have more things to read up on.
Time to go and have a therapeutic chilli!
Appreciate the video - been looking for a fresh detailed breakdown on the benefits for a while now.
Fantastic job researching the data as well as presenting it! Look forward to a follow up video.
Greeting from the other side of the pond. Found your channel thanks to the Google suggestions algorithms, amazing information. As a chile (Mexican style) adept I loved your channel and this video in particular made me appreciate chiles even more. For reference, I have two eggs sunny side up, three tortillas, a cup of black coffee and a serrano pepper for breakfast almost every day :)
Thank you for this information, I wish I could safely purchase seeds from you but I'm afraid customs will reject the package.
Can't wait to see the end of your harvest, those chiles look amazing!
Great information! I really enjoyed watching and reading. You did a fantastic job collecting these information!
Wow great video Shaun.
Wonderful work Shaun...you have elevated your channel to a higher level and you have definitely separated yourself from the ordinary chilli growers and chilli eaters who are hundreds of them on TH-cam...very professional approach
Great video! I love these "deep dive" videos. I learned that I need to eat more of the chilis I grow.
Great video! Thank you!
Great video, very informative. Thank you
The summary is let's eat chili every day. Regards from Jakarta, Indonesia. We love chilies :)
Love it keep it coming
Wonderful video great amount of information watched twice already
This was awesome Shaun! I know this took a ton of research to validate the information. I learned quite a few things watching this. You may have a second career as a professor at a college. So well done. I look forward to the LS tomorrow. V/R Shane
Thanks for teaching me something new today! Cheers
hey, thanks for educating us!
Brilliant - very well done.
Noted. Nice video, thanks for sharing❣
Very informative thanks for all the good work
Awesome health information. Been growing and dabbling in peppers for the past 3 years now and expanding the garden each season. Subscribed!!! Thank you sir.
Great information Thank you
Tnx Shaun. You answered many Q that I had for yrs... Well, now I know tnx to you. And this is why we chiliheads all love your channel. ❤💪
Great video man 👍
Great video!!
Thanks!!!! That was awesome!!!!
Thank you for showing the cited references.
Thanks for sharing. Subbed!
Brilliant video as always .you are producing some fantastic content .on behalf of all gardening and chili growers thank you .Best wishes from Ireland 🇮🇪 to you and your family .😊
Thank you Mark. That's kind of you to say!
Thank you, a lot of very encouraging and information, will try it out..
Shaun, this is brilliant content, thank you for you amazing efforts creating these fantastic videos
Thank you for the kind words Dave
Great stuff thank you...
How convenient, I just tonight grabbed up the last of the habaneros and other chilis from the garden! I might live forever!
OMG! That has to be one of the best videos you have ever done Shaun. absolutely astounding and mind blowing information. I would imagine that there has been a good few weeks of work gone into producing that 10 minute video. well done and thankyou for such invaluable information as unfortunately I do suffer with a number of the medical conditions listed, but luckily for me I also grow lots of chili's , although not a patch on what you do! Phil
Thank you Phil. Very kind of you to say.
great looking garden fellow Chilli head 😀 🌶 i have iBS im just finding out about this with peppers and I've been a long time fan of peppers. Johnny scoville actually informed me of this
Very nice and informative. Thank you for the citations as well! Stay spicy my man!
Thanks for providing all that information it was really helpful. Equally amazing was the speed at which you pronounced all those medical terms. Well done.
Thanks David. It did take me 3 times to get that part right!
Well done Sir !!!
Great video Shaun, you clearly put a lot of effort into the research. As a number 10 you could have added growing chillis is great fun and good for your physical and mental health getting out and about in the garden :)
Wow that was very informative, never realised that chillies did so much, thanks for the video
wow, thanks for this, even if chillies can help at all, this is fantastic news for me. Thanks for your in depth research and citing your information. Really thorough work.
Makes me thankful I grew up in Colorado, which is definitely chilli country.
Top notch mate. How did you remember and learn how to pronounce all those technical words. Much respect and love your work 🔥🔥🔥
I put a ton on my oats in the morning and with dinner as well awesome benefits been doing it for years
Chilli, Garlic, Beer….. job done, no stress.
Good research! I have heard that capsaicin had health benefits in cancer but never read the articles about it. I’m going to read the articles you mentioned here! As a Pharmaceutical grad student I’m always interested in topics like this!
Thank you Shaun!! I'll be having chilli tea with my breakfast from now on...
At the rate we eat spicy food...we should live forever 😂
Great video Mr Chump!
Thank you kindly
I love it. Chillichump journal club anyone?
Thanks for the video capsaicin.
tremendous work sire
Thank you kindly!
Great info! Thanks.
I wonder if the heat level has an impact on the health benefits. I.e the hotter the better (or not).
Cheers
After a year and a half with hot pepper sauce a daily part of my diet I have kept my excess weight off and last summer during an extremely hot summer I was not bothered but the heat after about 6 weeks of building fences out in the direct sun and heat! This video explained a LOT for me!! I have shared this video many times on my videos and IRL! I am VERY interested in a follow up when more information is available!
Thank you
thanks!
Truly awesome
Amazingly well-researched video, this is top top stuff! I didn't NEED another reason to enjoy growing and eating peppers but they don't hurt!!
Thank you mate
"If you learned anything on this video"
I knew peppers were awesome, but I couldn't hold the smile throughout this video. Thanks!
Started watching people eating hot peppers and was wondering if I should start eating them for my health (not the heat). Great video.
great video....let thy food be thy medicine
Other than those questions, I love this video
I love chillis as in, yes I will be on fire after consuming it but I still enjoy it and I love the facts around it. Another Good video
Thanks!
Thank you Derrick for the Superthanks! That is very kind of you my friend.
WTF, this is the best chilli channel on YT, where have you been? I've been browsing for a year. Thanks algorithm
Thank you Mike. That's kind of you to say! Welcome
Great video! I eat raw (hot) peppers as an expectorant... it was super helpful when i had Covid
@ 6:00 YIKES!!!! (the snip sound had me laughing)
Great video as always. I just shared it on my facebook page but did it by copy and paste (not the share function as I saw that option too late). I hope you don't mind. Hopefully, it will generate some more traffic.
Thanks Johan, I appreciate you getting my channel out there!
There is also the mental health benefit. Depression, unhappiness - then make a chili, a good curry, pizza with chili will cheer you up. Especially for breakfast.
Well, it works for me.
A lot of Super hero's in the world. And You are mine. I've seen a lot of your videos and every one of them are colorful and very beautifully done.ThankYou for making these awesome videos
Thank you, that is kind of you to say!
Awesome fact filled video Shaun! The boat load of reading available in your resource listing is a complete bonus! I had a general awareness of positive health benefits within the native populations in the southwestern part of the states here. But generally that would be old data now. One curious feature to perhaps keep in mind is the negative health consequences associated with the typical westernized diet. At one time a general observation could have suggested that a diet rich in hot spicy foods seemed to lead to a much healthier system overall. I suspect a mere glance at the growing waistline of many populations would lead to the understanding that good peppers are lacking. Any follow up to these studies or new trials could be very interesting when available. Stay Spicy! -Bob...
Thanks Bob. It was an interesting one to research (and time consuming!). Hope to see you on Sunday for the livestream!
@@ChilliChump Already have Sunday breakfast timed to enjoy just before the your live stream begins!
Wow!
welcome back
I use Chilli or pepper to clear my nostrils when I have the common cold. Vicks inhalers just backs up the mucus but peppers clear them out of you.
Fun fact ;. Chillies plants , will with minimal care , grow for several years - there's a jalapeno pepper a few doors down that's been growing for over 10 years , always producing fruit .
Mum used to grow cayane peppers when I was very young , other chillies varietys weren't available at the time in the area we lived - not in the northern hemisphere .
All pretty awesome facts and benefits. Have you tried growing pequin and chiltepin plants
Have grown Pequin. Don't think I've grown Chiltepin
Mushrooms are very similar as far as health benifits but aren't painful. I like both tho
Chilli is my new medicine
Capsicum heat cream works great as pain controll
Thanks so much! This must’ve been a ton of hard work. Now I wonder if any studies have found negative effects? 🤔
There were a few studies that I came across that had negative implications too!
Great video today. Which pepper would you suggest for arthritis pain?
One can buy ointment with capsaicin.
I’ve been enjoying habanero peppers pretty much daily. I love the taste of them but I don’t really try the hotter varieties. I wish I could have just even a small scale green house just to grow peppers. Keep up the good videos you make.
I grow 10 variaties of peppers in my livingroom windowsill, I have a lot of sunshine there and the grow just like any plant would grow. I get lots of peppers 🙂
@@margavanderwel1485 Thank you, that’s a great idea and I have plenty of sunlight in my back living room.
Habaneros taste amazing! All of them from yellow to chocolate... Some say they are superhot but that's a myth. I make my own sauces and ferment chilies for up to 3 yrs. This year I decided to add ONE trinidad scorpio to a 1kg mash of habaneros. A bit more evil hot but still tasty. My problem with superhot chilies is the taste. There's verry little taste and a lot of burning sensation. So this year I'm experimenting with superhot sauces that actually taste good. Next year I'll try to crossbreed different superhots with different habaneros...
@@saturnative Wow this sounds amazing 🤩
nice1!
An incredibly professional channel. I'd be interest to know if you found anything on Parkinsons Disease. My mother has it and finds relief from CBD. I'd be interested in other herbal relief such as capsaicin.
Thanks as always for your efforts.
Unfortunately I didn't see anything around Parkinson during my research. I am sorry to hear that your mum has it.
Great presentation CC.
Ain`t it strange that such a beneficial substance is so hard to eat (heat level) and yet things that are so bad for us taste great (sugar).
So If i am not mistaken you could extract the hottest Capsicum, cut to very small pieces or dry and grind to powder then make coated sweets that are small enough to swallow without tasting the chilli ? I bet those would sell in your shop and backed up with your impressive research.
Yeah, more chilli!
G'day, Shaun, I know you are busy, but my Fermented Chilli sauce won 1st place at the Royal Adelaide Show, thanks to your recipe, cheers Tom
That's fantastic to hear Thomas! Congratulations, you must be proud.
Thanks for the follow up cheers Tom
Great video. I wonder if capsaicin could be consumed in capsule form for those that can't handle or don't enjoy the heat of the fruits. Kind of like cumin supplements etc.
The capsaicin benefits would be the same, you just wouldn't get as much of the vitamins he listed at the beginning since that's from the flesh of the peppers and not just the capsaicin extract.
Also you still get some mild burn with the pills. It's not nearly what you get from normal eating, but it's still an adjustment if you're not used to spicy food.
I used to take them, but over time I've just learned how to incorporate a few spicy chilies into my normal foods. You don't need much, and you build a tolerance for it if you learn to cook with them in small amounts just a couple meals a week.
@@Vincent_Beers thanks for the informative reply. Much appreciated! :-)
Hi ChilliChump, do you happen to know if they sell Capsaisin in pill form?
Hey Shaun, what a great video and boy that must have been work! We really (well, maybe not Dave Douchekowsky😁) appreciate your meticulousness. And yes please a follow up video would be nice! If i may (and if you dont know it already) it would be interesting why chillies affect some people's digestive tract (me) much more than others (you). I loved when you explained the coriander mysterium. Thank you for your continuous hard work!
It affects my digestive tract too when I eat superhots (high concentration of capsaicin)!
@@ChilliChump For me it already starts with Tabasco! LOL
Something like your Nyami salt taste great but goes right through!
@@madcraic3283 wow...really? That's not great. Some of my stronger sauces must be really painful for you in your gut!
@@ChilliChump Naa, it is not really painful and i enjoy the taste and all, it just pays to be at home with immidiate access to the loo (sorry for the picture in your head🤢). AND, i wouldnt miss it for the world.
Fantastic video! Does the capsaicin have to come from fresh peppers, or do dried peppers produce the same positive health benifits?
Dried will have the same effects, the capsaicin will still be present
