In this era where spicy food is not a must

Some people like to eat chili peppers

Some people also like to eat mustard

But you know what?

The same is eaten in the mouth

Why does chili pepper make your mouth spicy?

But mustard is choking and makes people feel dizzy?

Let’s take a look at it together below

I understand after reading it

It turns out that the spiciness of peppers is determined by capsaicin.

And this spiciness is not provided by the taste buds

But after the tongue is stimulated

Sends a burning sensation to the brain

at the same time

The body also secretes endorphins that make you excited and happy

So there is a feeling of "eating spicy food all the time and feeling refreshed"

Not only that

Capsaicin also affects intestinal flora

Play the role of lowering blood lipids and blood sugar

in addition

A small amount of capsaicin can also repair gastric mucosa

Prevent gastritis from becoming serious

But mustard is different.

It is made from the seeds of shepherd's purse

Ground powdered spices

Mustard seeds have no spicy taste before they are crushed.

If you add the powder to water

A spicy substance

——

Allyl isothiocyanate

This substance is highly volatile

Will go straight to the nasal cavity

That feeling makes you quite high
