The only real potential problem with eating lotsof chillies,is if you suffer from excess acid in your stomach, or ulcers, the chillies can aggravate it.

Other than that, as a previous poster said, eating chillies can boost your metabloic system, and are also good as loosening decongestants if you have a cold or cough.

The stomach is incredibly acid (ph 2-3, neutral = 7), and it is really good at killing bugs. I can't believe that chillies are going to do much damage. They give the lower smooth muscle a good exercise as well.

Chillies cause the release of endorphins which give sensations of intense pleasure. Chillies are a digestive orgasm. Anybody who is a real afficionado will know that curry feeling, it's a craving, and you know that only a phall will do.

It may not be bad for your stomach but excessive consumption of SUPER hot chilli will give you almighty ring-sting and could even cause blistering of the anus!

Puts me in mind of the old joke: when does an Indian know he`s hungry? When his rosebud stops burning!
