Chili pepper can be consumed fresh, dried, smoked, cooked, or raw to flavor and season any type of dish based on meat, fish, pasta, or sauces. Chili pepper is a powerful vasodilator thanks to lecithin, which strengthens the coronary arteries and gives good elasticity to the arteries; for this reason, it is considered an aphrodisiac food and, in any case, a panacea for our health. Ripe chili pepper is particularly rich in vitamins and carotenoids, as well as minerals such as potassium, calcium, and phosphorus. Also containing flavonoids and capsaicinoids, it has an antibacterial effect, so foods cooked with chili pepper can be preserved relatively long. Chili pepper has a strong antioxidant power. Chili pepper is useful in treating cold-related diseases such as colds, sinusitis, and bronchitis and promotes digestion. By stimulating intestinal peristalsis, chili pepper promotes transit and evacuation. Chili pepper can also be used as an analgesic in arthritis, diabetic neuropathy, post-herpetic neuralgia and trigeminal neuralgia, post-mastectomy symptoms, and cluster headaches. It can also be hypothesized that the sensation of pain produced by capsaicin stimulates the brain to produce endorphins, a natural opioid that acts as an analgesic and produces a sense of well-being. It is also thought to be an aphrodisiac food, but there is no study or evidence to prove its alleged aphrodisiac properties.
