Do you still remember Song Zuying's " Hot Girl "? The lyrics are written like this: "Ladies are never afraid of being hot, girls are not afraid of being hot by nature, and girls who go out are afraid of not being hot". It can be seen that the degree of preference for peppers.

In life, does have a lot of people who love to eat chili , such as Sichuan, Chongqing, Zhejiang, Fujian, Hunan, Hubei, Guizhou and so on. also has many people who don’t eat chili , such as southern Fujian, Jiangsu, and Guangzhou. Due to the different diets in different regions, their cooking skills are also different.

However, among these people, there is such a view: eating chili not only hurts the stomach, but also increases the probability of cancer, is it true? The facts may be different from what you think.

This is because not everyone can eat chili. People with healthy stomach can eat it in moderation. However, if the stomach has inflammation or ulcers, it is best to eat less or no chili according to the condition of the disease.

In addition, there are some special groups, such as children and adolescents, the elderly, pregnant women, and people with high blood pressure. Although they are not allowed to eat chili in one bite, do not overeat them. This is because eating too much pepper can promote the body to get angry. From the perspective of physical health, it should be treated specially when it is in a special stage.
