How It WorksChili peppers are rich in antioxidant compounds, such as beta carotene and beta cryptoxanthin, which are transformed by the body into vitamin A. The lycopene in red chili peppers have cardioprotective properties, while lutein and zeaxanthin are both essential for eye health. Capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin are the most potent capsaicinoids in chili peppers and the cause of their spicy flavor. The contact between capsaicin and the skin initially produces pain, inflammation, and a localized heat sensation. However, it quickly promotes an analgesic response by desensitizing sensory receptors. Once isolated and in the proper dosage, capsaicin is opening new possibilities for the management of arthritic symptoms, diabetic neuropathy, and as a low-abuse-potential solution for those affected by chronic pain conditions. While its mechanism of action is yet to be fully understood, it is thought that capsaicin promotes vasodilation and increases blood flow, which prevents the accumulation of harmful cholesterol levels and also facilitates digestion, as well as healthy bowel movements.
