Not only is the capsaicin in chili peppers anti-bacterial, it's also anti-fungal and can increase metabolism by changing the shape of a protein pump in the muscles, making it release energy as heat instead of pumping calcium. Is there a hot-pepper diet on the horizon?

sorry, i had a typo.
a hot-pepper diet sounds like a quick way to make sure we spend all of our time in a single room in the house.
There's always side effects to any diet ...
