Chili was good but could not excessive consumption

The scientists conducted experiments in spontaneously hypertensive rats with hereditary vascular endothelial capsaicin receptor, capsaicin activate the capsaicin receptor, can significantly enhance vasodilation and reduce spontaneously hypertensive rats blood pressure. In addition, capsaicin also makes thinning of the cerebral vascular lumen diameter increased, thus preventing stroke. The study found that stroke type mice fed capsaicin, the average life expectancy of only 70 days, but fed capsaicin, the life span is 100 days. There are many causes of hypertension, dietary factors is just one of the experiments on mice only prove that eating chili no harm. The daily average to eat chili, eat what kind of chili, how to eat in order to prevent high blood pressure, is a very complex issue. Consider many people can not eat spicy food, perhaps structural transformation of capsaicin, the spicy sweet and more generally applicable crowd.

Experts think that capsaicin is useful but should not eat spicy food blindly, scientists mentioned the results of the epidemiological investigation is an objective reality, but does not let people eating spicy food blindly. First of all, we can not definitely determine whether capsaicin determine the incidence of cardiovascular disease in some areas, is the size of the activity, climate factors, other dietary habits different cause these results.

In addition, from the conclusion of the experiment in mice can not directly generalizable to have the same effect on human. The study itself is a good theoretical research, scientists did not recommend blindly eat chili. There was a research about chili and curry prove that capsaicin as pharmaceutical raw materials can promote animal cell metabolism, increase energy consumption, promote blood circulation. Also are many people who love spicy food, no studies have shown that people who love spicy food than people who do not love spicy and leaner. Capsaicin have many effects, such as benefits for cardiovascular disease, but no food is a panacea and perfect, beneficial to the body does not mean you can eat unlimited.

Capsaicin contact with mucosal can cause burning sensation and increased gastric acid secretion, like caffeine good for cardiovascular disease, but it may cause osteoporosis, capsaicin can also cause stomach ulcers, and some skin infections, constipation,hemorrhoids and so on, a place long-term eating habits have its ecological significance and rationality, but transplanted to other places, whether it’s suitable requires further study.

Different races, different groups of people, in the case of different genetic susceptibility, the impact of different outside eating is not the same. The proof capsaicin role in the prevention of cardiovascular disease in the animal experiments, can not be proved in the crowd. The prevention of stroke, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases among the most important measures to limit salt, low-salt diet, especially universal salt intake too much for the Chinese people. Chinese people general lack of folic acid in the diet, Americans benefit of folic acid supplementation is very obvious. Strengthen the control of blood pressure in hypertensive patients, in all hypertensive patients, 50% of patients with hypertension-induced cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, folic acid supplements, eat more fruits and vegetables, and foods rich in B vitamins, as well as emphasis on low-fat low sugar low calorie diet is very important, from the mass level, we do not recommend people to drink vinegar today and eat capsaicin tomorrow.
