As it turns out, capsaicin has wide-ranging effects as a drug, a great many of them very beneficial. In fact, it such an effective pain medication, that many equestrian bodies have banned the substance for fear of it being used to mask pain in ailing horses.

So, the capsascin rats had the same weight as the normal diet rats, even though they had the high fat diet.

I quit smoking about a year back, yet I didn't gain weight. I claim that chili and chilpotle became my nicotine substitute.

I’m sure this is true for most people. How could they possibly gain weight if they can’t stand to eat their food? Myself, on the other hand...

The fat savings due to chili in most Mexican foods is akin to having a diet coke with a supersized extra value meal.

I work with a bunch of pepperheads. Lunch at the local Thai restaurant can be interesting. "How many stars? I don't want any FReepin' stars! Are you out of your FReepin' mind? Look, just because I'm sitting with idiots with burnt-out taste buds doesn't mean I'm an idiot too! No FReepin' stars, OK? No, wait - can you go negative? I want a negative three FReepin' stars, OK?"

It doesn't work.
