Health Benefits — hot sauce

When it comes to eating hot peppers and hot pepper products, the trick is part of the treat. That’s because capsaicin, the active ingredient in hot peppers that makes them so spicy hot, is actually playing a trick on your mind and body. After all, the pepper’s not really on fire, but your mind is probably telling you otherwise!

 If you’re a fan of seafood, in particular, you’re definitely in luck! That’s because spicy seafood is a great idea, no matter even the time of year.

As the temperatures outside continue to dip and Old Man Winter makes a showing, ‘tis the season to kick back by the fire and settle in for a long few months of winter ahead. But if you’re looking to warm up the winter months, you may not need to throw another log on the fire at all. Instead, head to the kitchen and go for some spicy, hot sauce-infused recipes.

Many people are naturally drawn to hot sauce and hot flavors. In fact, you probably know a person or two who lives up to the mantra, “the hotter the better”! It turns out, though, that people might be fairly unique to this particular attraction. When it comes to the hot sauce effect, all mammals are certainly not created equal, and almost all mammals are affected by hot sauce and hot peppers in the same way.
