Chili pepper is a common ingredient in our daily life. In Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Chongqing, Hunan and other regions, chili pepper is an indispensable core ingredient. Almost every dish must be added with chili pepper, making the meal incomplete without spicy food. Chili peppers are highly irritating and can irritate the stomach and intestines. People with inflammation should eat them with caution. But can you eat non-spicy chili peppers when you have inflammation? Let’s take a look at the explanation below.

You cannot eat spicy food, as it will affect recovery. Especially when you have inflammation, eating spicy food will make it worse or make it difficult to heal. It’s not suitable to eat spicy food now because it’s hot. The condition has been cured and stabilized. The reexamination results are normal and I can eat a little spicy food. But it is not suitable to eat if the weather is too hot.

When you eat too much spicy food, it will irritate the intestinal mucosa, causing the secretion of intestinal digestive juices and peristaltic dysfunction, resulting in symptoms of diarrhea. Of course, everyone's intestinal sensitivity is different. Some may have no reaction after eating, while others will have a more severe reaction. For those who are more sensitive, it is recommended to eat less spicy food.

If you did not have this reaction when eating spicy food before, it is possible that you have more fire and dampness toxins in your body during this period, and the fact that chili peppers themselves are fiery in nature and have a dehumidifying effect may have caused this reaction. Or, your intestinal mucosa is damaged now, so you should pay attention to eating less or no irritating food in the future.

If there is local inflammation, you cannot eat spicy food or seafood. You need to take anti-inflammatory drugs, drink more water, and eat protein-rich foods such as chicken soup and fish soup.

It is best to wait for two days and wait until the inflammation subsides before eating again. Try to eat less non-spicy peppers. When you see spicy food, control yourself. Because spicy food has an irritating taste, it will cause a chain reaction in the body's endocrine system and produce resistance to certain drugs, making some of the drugs not only useless but also producing adverse effects. It’s not that you absolutely can’t eat it, just try to eat less.

Not only people with inflammation should not eat spicy food in daily life, but even normal people should try to eat a lighter diet in daily life, because a light diet is good for the stomach and intestines, as well as for your body. If you eat too spicy food in your daily life, it is very likely to cause various inflammations and diseases.
