Why do I feel high after eating spicy food?

You might feel a "high" after eating spicy food becausethe capsaicin in chili peppers activates pain receptors, triggering the release of endorphins and dopamine, which are neurotransmitters associated with pleasure and euphoria.

  • Capsaicin and Pain Receptors:Spicy foods, particularly those containing capsaicin, don't actually taste hot; instead, they activate pain receptors in the mouth and throat. 
  • Endorphin and Dopamine Release:When these pain receptors are activated, the brain releases endorphins, which are natural painkillers that can create a pleasurable sensation, and dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with reward and pleasure. 
  • "Chili High" or "Runner's High":This release of endorphins and dopamine can lead to a feeling of euphoria or a "chili high," which is similar to the "runner's high" experienced after physical activity.
