A dietitian told us about the diseases that can cause a person to crave spicy food.

According to her, people with atherosclerosis often crave spicy food. With this disease, the blood is thick and has difficulty circulating through the circulatory system, so the body subconsciously demands to improve blood circulation through spicy food.

A craving for spicy foods can also indicate problems with the thyroid gland and hormone deficiency.

Spicy food is also desired when you are in a bad mood or depressed. The doctor emphasized that during the use of spicy food, hormones of joy are released – endorphins.

“Spicy food accelerates blood circulation, accordingly, we feel a relative surge of strength,” the doctor said.
