Everyone has experienced sweating from eating spicy food. 'Spicy' is not actually a taste but a pain sensation. When you are stimulated by this pain, your heart rate increases, blood circulation speeds up, you sweat, and feel hot. These are normal reactions. This is also why some people say eating chili peppers can help with weight loss!
Look at the girls from Sichuan and Chongqing; they are so spicy because they can eat spicy food.
So, is it really effective to lose weight by eating chili peppers?
The conclusion is, yes! The capsaicin in chili peppers can promote fat metabolism, prevent fat accumulation in the body, and is rich in dietary fiber, which helps reduce fat, lose weight, and prevent diseases. Additionally, the capsaicin in chili peppers stimulates the sympathetic nervous system, which determines the rate of fat consumption in the body. Chili peppers can also promote the secretion of adrenaline, accelerate metabolism, and enhance the burning and breakdown of fat cells, thereby achieving weight loss.
Therefore, you can moderately consume chili peppers as a seasoning, especially if you are trying to lose weight. However, you should pay attention to the amount and spiciness. Even if you can handle spicy food, you shouldn't consume too much at once. Otherwise, it may affect stomach function, and in severe cases, cause stomach pain or even stomach bleeding. After eating spicy food, you should drink enough water to promote metabolism. But be aware that street foods like spicy hotpot and spicy skewers are usually high in oil and spiciness, which not only won't help you lose weight but may actually make you gain weight.
On the other hand, chili peppers can stimulate the oral mucosa, cause stomach peristalsis, promote saliva secretion, enhance appetite, and aid digestion. Although it temporarily speeds up metabolism, it can also increase your appetite, making you eat more. Therefore, if you don't control your food intake, relying on chili peppers to lose weight will inevitably be ineffective.
