Also, the researchers even found that they were able to reverse type 1 diabetes in some mice, by feeding them the fiery pepper.
The chilli seemed to bind itself to a receptor called TRPV1, which is found in the gut, oesophagus and pancreas.
When it binds itself to the receptor, it creates a compound called as Anandamide, which is chemically quite similar to Cannabinoids found in Marijuana.
It was this compound that caused the immune system of these mice to calm down, by reducing the inflammation, and the same happened when they were fed anandamide directly.
Reducing the inflammation in the pancreas could help in the treatment of diabetes.
As the pancreas is responsible for the maintenance of insulin and glucose levels in the body.
Reason-A diabetes patient has too much glucose in their system and the pancreas is unable to regulate it.
