While spicy food can add great flavor and even offer some health benefits like boosting metabolism and providing antioxidants, it may not suit everyone. For some individuals, especially those with sensitive stomachs or digestive issues, consuming very spicy food can lead to acidity, heartburn, stomach irritation, or even worsen conditions like ulcers or acid reflux. It may also trigger loose motions or discomfort in people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Over time, excessive spice intake can irritate the lining of the digestive tract. The key is moderation. If you love spicy food, try pairing it with cooling items like curd or salads to reduce its impact.
