Chili Peppers
Chili pepper contains capsaicin, which causes the
mouth to burn when it is consumed.
This component has a soothing effect on the bronchial passages and lungs, producing a secretion that thins the mucous in the respiratory system Chili peppers are an irritant to the stomach and signal the bronchial cells to pour out fluid, making the
lung and throat secretions less thick and sticky. Chili peppers are good, as a fibrinolytic stimulant, meaning that the hot peppers are good at preventing and dissolving blood clots. Although the effect of chili peppers only lasts a short while, their frequent
consumption reduces the possibility of circulatory
blockage.
Benefits:
• medicinal for the lungs
• an expectorant and decongestant
• eases chronic bronchitis and emphysema
• helps dissolve blood clots
• kills pain
