No references found | Though the seed-attacker Fusarium fungus lurks throughout the chilies' wild range, Haak and his colleagues have found that Bolivian chilies in dry spots skimp on the protective capsaicinoids. The capsaicinoids (the chemical responsible for a chile's heat) irritate trigeminal cells, the pain receptors located in the mouth, nose and stomach. Our hot red pepper ingredient for use in weight management formulations, Capsimax[TM] Capsicum Extract, is micro-encapsulated using our patented OmniBead[TM] beadletting technology, which delivers functionally effective levels of capsaicinoids while minimizing the oral and gastric irritation that unprotected capsicum can cause. |
