I'll tell you how I started eating hot peppers. Different people have different needs, & I would imagine that there are some people, even if it may be rare, who do not need hot peppers, such people would probably have an allergic reaction, or find the taste, smell or sight of the peppers, utterly repulsive. The body knows. It's hard to go wrong when all you're eating is one simple mono-food.

Today, I ate some potatoes with 7 ripe, orange habanero peppers, shredded up, and baked with the potatoes, with cheese on top, and now, I feel a tiny blister/sore on the roof of my mouth. Assuming this sore was not caused by the temperature-heat of the potatoes, I am going to trust that this is my body's way of telling me that I need to back off on the hot-peppers, and wait until my mouth is healed, before continuing to eat more.

Another example is that when I was slicing the habaneros in to the dish, over the potatoes, my nose all of a sudden had a strong sensation to sneeze, at around the 6th habanero. I assumed that my body was telling me that I've put enough in there. Maybe if I had listened to it, & quit at 6, I would not have a blister in my mouth.
Likewise, there are plenty of other sensations to pay attention to. I believe that the urge to vomit is a good indicator that what was eaten was too much & not healthy. The sense of taste is a big one too, in most cases. I believe that 1 & a half raw habaneros cut up with other food, or 4 baked ones (not fried) eaten as a spice with a meal, should be enough to get some parasites expelled.

I started off with jalepino peppers, the green ones. For several weeks I would chew them up, & eventually I swallowed them. It took a while to work my way up to eating only a small, tiny, fragment of the orange flesh of an habanero. Then I worked my way up to eating the first half of the pepper, the half without the seeds, for the seeds are the hottest part. Then I would eat a seed at a time. It's much easier to eat them cooked. I've noticed a lot of parasites come out, even when they have been baked well, however, the book I have, "Curing with Cayenne", by Sam Biser, teaches that the hotter, the more raw, & the more organic the peppers are, the better they are for you. This book is a great read, with great info. It says that one should chew up the hot peppers well, and mix it with the saliva. The saliva has enzymes that are the first phase of the digestion process. Swallowing pills of powdered hot-peppers are not nearly as effective, according to the book.

Are they best from a specialty store, or the grocery store? According to the book, they are best when they are organic & grown well, because that makes them the hottest. It says that often, even health-food store brands will say that they are hot, but when tasted, they are actually quite weak. Personally, I've gotten all those critters in those pics out with eating orange habaneros from the local farmer's market, and their habaneros are not as hot as the ones I used to get from our local grocery store, Ingles. As long as it tastes hot, and I'm expelling worms, I'm satisfied with the quality.

I find that my mouth blisters easier if I eat them raw, and by them self. That's why I currently prefer to eat them cut up in to tiny pieces with other food, like a very hot spice. It adds a delicious flavor to the meal.

When I ate 2.5 raw habaneros, I cried, & sweated, & felt the urge to sneeze as my nose ran, but the worst sensation was the heat on my tongue and lips. When it gets this bad, the painful heat usually lasts for 30 minutes. When it finally started to feel better, I vomited them back up, and the hot pain lasted another 20 minutes, but the pain goes away eventually.

The protocal to follow is to trust your heart, listen to your gut & the rest of your body, & start eating hot peppers, slowly working your way up to hotter, and hotter peppers, of greater volume, without hurting yourself, but try to make it a pleasant and tasty experience. There are probably valuable components in hot peppers that the body needs, after all, our taste-buds taste, and often enjoy hot-spicy food (but not too hot), naturally, without any chemicals added, or much processing. If you're taking medications, or have a health condition, its a good idea to research & make sure that the hot peppers wont make things worse, or interact with the medications. Check the PDR, or talk to your doctor.

Milk, and Sugar are known to have a strong cooling effect on hot chillies. Although some people say bread is supposed to help, it's never helped cool my tongue.

One interesting thing I am noticing is that only about 5 to 10 minutes after eating many habaneros in a meal, I have to urgently have a movement, and I feel spicy burning sensations during the movement. It just does not seem very likely that the peppers traveled all the way through my entire intestines that quickly, or that the parasites were killed and taken to be expelled with the hot pepper juice that quickly. You'll see. It's peculiar, & makes me wonder what's really happening in there. Good luck, & happy hunting.
