Показать описание
Some people cannot handle spicy food. This is because of the chemical compound, Capsaicin — which binds to pain receptors on your tongue, and causes warning signals to be sent to the brain. People are down to eat spicy food like it because this pain response also triggers the release of endorphins and dopamine, which creates a feeling of euphoria. So next time you eat tacos and are super happy, blame the hot sauce.
