8. Enhance Your Mood

There is significant evidence that eating spicy foods can make you happier. According to scientific research, many types of spicy foods promote the body’s feel-good hormones, like serotonin. These hormones help people cope more effectively with negative emotions like sadness, anger, and stress. Phaal curry and spicy Korean barbecue wings could offer respite from a bout of work-related stress or minor mood disturbances.
