Chilli, often synonymous with the fiery spice kick in various global cuisines, is derived from the fruits of plants belonging to the Capsicum genus. Originating from the Americas, chillies have become a cornerstone ingredient in cuisines like Mexican, Indian, Thai, and Korean. Packed with vitamins A and C, chillies are also rich in antioxidants like capsaicin, the compound responsible for their heat, which has been linked to anti-inflammatory properties and potential pain relief. Beyond this, they may boost metabolism and support heart health. However, excessive consumption can irritate the stomach lining and exacerbate acid reflux for sensitive individuals. Fresh chillies, dried powders, and sauces allow for versatile use, but moderation is key to balancing their health benefits with digestive comfort.
