Chili Peppers Fight Migraine Headaches and Sinus Headaches

by Mike Hultquist · Apr 22, 2014 · 2 Comments

Studies show that chili peppers can provide pain relief for migraine and sinus headaches. Capsaicin, the chemical that makes chili peppers hot, is known to inhibit a key neuropeptide, Substance P, that is the key brain pain transmitter. Go capsaicin! So if you're suffering from headaches or pain associated with sinus problems, reach for your nearest chili pepper and get creative with incorporating them into your diet.

    I just love chillies in anything with anything to.

    I love the the heat. I've have had phenomena twice and have found the searching heat keeps my chest clear . I have a disability that is now very zapping of my energy.

    Any chili brings a welcome distraction in growing and eating and reading about the humble and many varieties.
