I love eating hot peppers- sometimes even half a jar in one sitting. Some people tell me that it is unhealthy and dangerous for the stomach. Is this true or made up??
i’ve heard that it could burn a hole in the lining of your stomach! at least the very hot ones!
Hot Peppers as in jalepenos or the yellow spicy pepper rings in a jar??
xerox – keep it up. i just checked them out. seems like they’re high in antioxidants, prevent strokes and heart attacks and also prevent cancer from spreading! from what i read, there is no proof that hot peppers cause ulcers. enjoy!
I *heard* they actually speed up your metabolism but I have no idea.
I love eating them too! My favorite are the spicy picled ones from Israeli restaurants.
Too much of anything is not good, try sour pickles…
Perhaps ”Dr. Pepper” knows a thing or two about this.
My father is always claiming that they are gona give me ulcers but dunno if that’s true! They’re heaven!!!
Wonder what will happen if you put it in the choulent…
they probably lose whatever they have. like putting alcohol in chulent. that’s what i’m imagining.
They taste great though on the side with cholent!
xerox: lol they do taste different!!!!
I do not know about all hot peppers, Cayenne(or hot red pepper) is fantastic and quite tasty. Add Turmeric and Curry and you have Winter Indian choulent that may just keep the immune system in tact.
Yankdownunder- I recently started putting in cayenne pepper. It’s been a big hit!
Esther1, u have to know exactly how much to put, that’s a very strong spice!!
Anyone here have Charif???
I looove it. With Falafel and Chumus…
Mrs. B- I put in a very tiny bit. Otherwise….
xerox: the lining in your stomach is to protect the sides of your stomach, by eating very hot peppers you are making a whole in it. either from the spiciness of it or maybe it as acids in it or something! sorry i don’t really know much info. on this topic! maybe just take it easy with the hot stuff though 😉
You for real yenta101?
Is that an end to my charrif and chumus? SNIFF SNIFF… :-(((((((
i think its ok to have just you shouldn’t have a lot like every day!! once or twice a week is ok – IM ASSUMING! i’ll try to look up more info on this topic and let you know!
Appreciated…this is my life at stake 🙂
xerox did you not see my 🙂 at the end meaning I wasn’t being exactly serious? Come on man where’s the humor?
Yeah loads better…:o) ;o)
p.s what does jk stand for?
PLEASE tell me you’re not serious, noitallmr! how old are you? 85????
My kids teach me these things from texting. JK = just kidding
so im still in the middle of researching..so far i’ve seen/heard that it could be dangerous for your stomach lining for the previous reason i stated! some also say that its good for you and can reduce the chances of stroke and hearts attack. as well, some say that it actually strengthens your stomach lining! but im still looking up so ill let you know more soon!
85??? Do I sound that young? Not gonna reveal my age but I remember when the Dead Sea was very sick.
Kidding I’m pretty young actually but never quite got the hand of all the short-hand texting (mostly used by girls actually…)
actually my computer’s professor said that part of the curriculum really is to teach all those (even though he skipped it.) lol, gtg, brb and a zillion more. i kinda think it’s stupid. it’s really no big deal to write the words out normally.
Yeah brooklyn19 for typing on a PC. But for texting by mobile where it costs per text you wanna cut down as much as poss.
By the way, does anyone know what this says? (I know, just wondering whether you do…)
URYY4ME
you are too wise for me
ok some more facts:
eating them too often produces more stomach acid,too much stomach acid over a period of time will eat away at the lining of the esophagus and stomach as well as the intestines, causing an ulcer.
they also prevent strokes, heart attack and blood clotting (which i mentioned before)!
(causes bleeding(ulcers), reduces blood clotting ..that makes sense right?)
let me know if you want any more info and ill try to get more!
again..having them once in a while is probably okay..just dont have too many, too often!
I heard they are good for a cold any backup on that?
so do hot peppers help speed up your metabolism thus helpin loose weight or not? doesnt grapeftuits do that?
i think they do and i think grapefruit also cuts your appetite. great for people who love to eat like me :}
Just smelling the hot pepper juice is a great way to clear your nose when you have a cold!
XEROX: I’ll let you be your own judge on how much is too much!! And yes, i heard (but didn’t mention..sorry) that it can speed up ur metabalism!
try a laxative. it’s easier.
