HiChris, wellcome aboard,

as regards Chilli's & health, well i've found that eating Chilli's makes me
feel good, so thats a health benefit.

Another plus is that when you cook 'em (in a pan) the fumes really clear the
nose & sinuses out.

Not too scientific I know but of anecdotal value.

More useful is my BP, 120/80, not bad for an old (41+fat) un.

regd's Keith
