That is good news. I look forward to further developments :-) If chiles can help to kill cancer cells, why do they also believe that eating large quantities of them can cause cancer of the mouth/tongue/throat/oesophagus/stomach/bowel/anus/rectum?

I was just typing a very sensible reply and then re-read your post :-) I have read that there are high rates of cancers of the mouth->bum in India, and this is thought to be attributable to the large amount of spicy food they consume.

I think the spices can damage mucous membranes, which is presumably why it hurts when you eat it and clears your nose :-)
