According to this report from the always, reliable and never-fake-news-providing CNN, “eating chilies cuts risk of death from heart attack and stroke.”

Now we’ve been blogging on the health benefits of capsicum for a while, but according to a new report, which compared the risk of death among 23,000 people, some of whom ate chili and some of whom didn’t, found that the risk of dying from a heart attack was 40% lower among those eating chili peppers at least four times per week.

“An interesting fact is that protection from mortality risk was independent of the type of diet people followed,” said study lead author Marialaura Bonaccio, an epidemiologist at the Mediterranean Neurological Institute (Neuromed).
“In other words, someone can follow the healthy Mediterranean diet, someone else can eat less healthily, but for all of them chili pepper has a protective effect,” she said.
