DESCRIPTION: Chronic red pepper powder ingestion may be an effective treatment for IBS and chronic dyspepsia (indigestion), both of which can arise from food poisoning.

If you missed Wednesday's video of the day Hot Sauce in the Nose for Cluster Headaches? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/hot-sauce-in-the-nose-for-cluster-headaches), it explains how hot pepper compounds work by depleting pain fibers of their substance P.

I've covered some of the long-term consequences of food poisoning in videos such as Poultry and Paralysis (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/poultry-and-paralysis/), Fecal Bacteria Survey (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/fecal-bacteria-survey/), and Amnesic Seafood Poisoning (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/amnesic-seafood-poisoning/). The meat industry is all over it, though: Check out Viral Meat Spray (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/viral-meat-spray/) and Maggot Meat Spray (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/maggot-meat-spray/). Why is it legal to sell meat tainted with our leading foodborne killer? Find out in Salmonella in Chicken & Turkey: Deadly But Not Illegal (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/salmonella-in-chicken-turkey-deadly-but-not-illegal/).

I explore another natural treatment for IBS in Kiwi Fruit for Irritable Bowel Syndrome (http://nutritionfacts.org/2012/10/18/kiwi-fruit-for-irritable-bowel-syndrome/).

Have a question for Dr. Greger about this video? Leave it in the comment section at http://nutritionfacts.org/video/hot-sauce-in-the-nose-for-cluster-headaches/ and he'll try to answer it!
