The staff of the Italian Mediterranean Institute of Neurology conducted a long-term follow-up study on the eating habits and health status of 22,865,438+065,438+0 residents in Moli, Italy, and found that the death risk of coronary heart disease decreased by 44% and the death risk of stroke decreased by more than 60%. In addition, whether the subjects' eating habits are healthy or not, it seems that eating Chili regularly is beneficial to heart health.
Researchers speculate that capsaicin contained in peppers may be beneficial to heart health. Previous studies have also pointed out that capsaicin has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. In contrast, there is less capsaicin in sweet pepper. Although eating sweet pepper is also good for health, the effect of protecting the heart is not obvious.
