On this occasion I will write about the benefits of cayenne pepper which we rarely know about, I hope this article can be useful for our health.

Hive friends that I honor
A few days ago I saw a number of chili plants in my grandfather's yard and the chili plants were bearing a lot of fruit, and I saw that the chili plants were growing well because the place where the chili was planted had sufficient soil fertility for plant growth. This chili plant has yellowish fruit, and the fruit is medium in size.

Who is not familiar with cayenne pepper! Cayenne pepper which is a type of fruit that people often use as a cooking spice and functions as a flavor enhancer in every dish, so that cayenne pepper is very much planted by residents both in gardens and in yards and used for their daily needs. , as we know that cayenne pepper has a very spicy taste when compared to other chilies, so when used in cooking it will add a very tasty and delicious taste.

Apart from being used as a natural flavoring in cooking, it turns out that cayenne pepper has several health benefits that humans rarely know about, including the following:
A. Relieves pain
Cayenne pepper contains capsaicin which gives it a spicy taste.
If we give it to a sick body, the capsaicin in cayenne pepper will help relieve pain.

B. Treating psoriasis
Psoriasis is a disease that causes itchy, scaly, and rashes. Until now this autoimmune condition has no cure. However, capsaicin from cayenne pepper can help reduce itching and improve the appearance of skin caused by psoriasis

C. Increase the body's metabolism
Cayenne pepper can increase the body's metabolism. When consumed, the capsaicin compound in cayenne pepper can increase the amount of heat the body produces, thereby increasing metabolism and causing the body to burn more calories.

D. Maintain digestive health
When consuming cayenne pepper, Capsaicin can stimulate the nerves in the stomach which send signals to protect digestive health. Cayenne pepper can also increase the production of digestive juices, bring enzymes to the stomach to help the digestive system and protect the stomach from infection

E. Lowering high blood pressure
Cayenne pepper turns out to be high in potassium and low in sodium. This means that consuming cayenne pepper can help lower high blood pressure. In addition, cayenne pepper is a very good source of vitamin C and beta carotene. As we know that both have antioxidant properties and are important for increasing blood pressure. Meanwhile, Capsaicin also plays a role in sensory nerves which helps lower blood pressure

F. Reducing the risk of cancer
Several studies have shown that capsaicin in cayenne pepper can slow the growth of cancer cells. In fact, it may even kill cancer cells for certain types of cancer, such as prostate, skin cancer, and pancreatic cancer. However, further research is needed to prove the benefits of cayenne pepper against cancer.

G. Maintain a healthy weight
The next benefit of cayenne pepper is maintaining a healthy weight. again because the content of the capsaicin compound in cayenne pepper contributes to helping you lose weight. Consuming spicy food can increase metabolism, burn calories and make the stomach fuller after eating. Consuming spicy food tends to make us more satisfied, thus resisting the urge to eat more or eat unhealthy snacks. In other words, appetite can be restrained and have an effect on weight loss.

H. Maintain eye health
The next benefit of cayenne pepper is for eye health. The content of cayenne pepper such as vitamin B2 is very good for maintaining eye health, therefore we can consume cayenne pepper with the right dose and not overdo it so that it does not have side effects that can interfere with the body's health. In dealing with eye health problems, it is with the properties contained in the bottle, which both have healthful benefits for the eyes.

I. Overcoming headaches
Headaches can also be overcome by using cayenne pepper. This is because cayenne pepper contains a component called capsaicin which can give chilies a spicy sensation. Therefore, it is very dizzy, we can consume food that contains cayenne pepper in it, after that a spicy effect will be created which is marked by mucus in the nose.

Those are some of the benefits of cayenne pepper for health that we rarely know about. Even though it has health benefits, make sure you don't stay wise in consuming it and don't overdo it.

From the discussion above, I can draw several conclusions
Cayenne pepper is a type of fruit that is widely used when cooking food.

Cayenne pepper is very easy to cultivate both in the garden and in the yard and caring for it is also not a hassle.
Cayenne pepper besides being used as a food flavoring can also be beneficial for the health of the body
Some of the benefits of cayenne pepper include for eye health, to prevent cancer, maintain digestive health, maintain body immunity, prevent headaches, and several other diseases.
