A common question among people I met through my KANKUN business venture is “What are the benefits of chillies? , with the aim to fetch some good facts to share with our followers, I instinctively contacted one of my most trustworthy sources regarding health tips and home remedies, my mum. She, keeps some of the recipes and secrets of our family and has tonnes of experience by raising a family of 4 boys . So, I called Mexico D.F and this is what she told me:
… “Rolo (that’s how my mum call me) the poor chillies have gained a very bad reputation of causing ulcers and stomach ache, but chillies are the secret of our grandparents and the rest of the family good health. Chilli is a marvellous plant, packed with vitamin A, C and beta-carotene. It’s good for blood circulation, weight loss, among others! Live HOT and you will live LONG!” …
I am so pleased, we offer a healthy alternative option to Mexican food lovers. The whole range of KANKUN® Sauces is: gluten free, additives free, low salt and low fat, it keeps you healthy and beautiful too. Could it get any better than this?
Did you know …
*Capsaicin: is the oil present in the chillies. It is found mostly in the seeds and the “ribs” of chilli peppers.
Capsaicin acts on the same nerves – found in the tongue and the skin – that gives us a sensation of heat.
It releases a chemical called “Substance P” into the blood which sends signals to the brain, telling it you are eating something hot.
