Chili Pepper News

You may love popping off to the local sports bar to indulge in the hottest wings you can find. The latest spicy offerings from fast food joints might have forced you to make a detour on the way home from work. And it’s totally natural to become a little ecstatic when you buy a new bottle of hot sauce.

Chili peppers contain all sorts of vitamins and antioxidants alongside the fiery compound, capsaicin. The fight against free radicals is all the rage at the moment, but it’s really the heat-delivering capsaicin that works wonders inside your body every time you enjoy chili peppers or hot sauces with your meals.

If you planted your chili peppers early enough, you should have them in the ground by now. In fact, you may see the fruits of your labor already. Newbies to chili growing will have just a few plants and it’s possible they’ll get through all their peppers before they go bad. But, if you have a large crop of chili plants, you’ll need to figure out how you’ll make the most of your chili peppers.

Even if you’re keeping to a Paleo diet, you’re not eating the same things your ancestors did. No one is. That’s because what could have been available in a certain area and what was available to most people were two very different things. If you think about just how novel some crops were in different parts of the world, you’d shiver in your shoes – maybe even literally as you might choose to go without food for a while.
