Red Chilli

• An important antioxidant that supports the immune system and promotes collagen production for healthy skin and tissues.
• Capsaicin has mild pain-relieving properties and may be beneficial for managing pain associated with arthritis, headaches, and muscle soreness. When applied topically, capsaicin cream can temporarily reduce pain sensations.
• Capsaicin may boost metabolism and thermogenesis (heat production in the body), potentially aiding in weight management by burning more calories. However, research in this area is ongoing, and the effects are likely modest.
• Red chilies contain various antioxidants, including capsaicin, that help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals, potentially reducing the risk of chronic diseases like cancer and heart disease.
• Studies suggest that capsaicin may help lower bad cholesterol (LDL) levels and reduce blood clot formation, potentially benefiting heart health. However, more research is needed to confirm these findings.
• Capsaicin and other compounds in red chilies may have antibacterial and antimicrobial properties, potentially aiding in fighting off infections.
