Spicy foods and health

People who eat spicy foods nearly every day have a 14% chance of living longer than those who consume spicy foods less than once a week, according to a new study. Regular spicy food eaters also are less likely to die from cancer and heart and respiratory diseases than those who eat spicy foods infrequently. This was published in British medical journal.

The study was in populations who ate chilies in form of chili peppers which have capsaicin which has antiinflammatory properties.
