iSome people said, if the weather is cold… is great to gorge on Spicy Cuisine.
But in Malaysia (Hot Weather country), we have all different races living together, although weather is all the while HOT. Still there are a lot of Malaysians like Spicy Food!

I believe that my BigFish Cook Book on Spicy Cuisine Recipes influenced by the many factors.
Malaysian curries typically use curry powders rich in coconut milk, shallots, ginger, belacan (shrimp paste), chilis, and garlic.
With the Prawns, Chilies (both dried and fresh), shallots, garlic and torch ginger I have in the fridge. I am NOT going to use Coconut Milk and Shrimp paste for my BigFish Curry Cuisine.

From the research...

There are other health and preventative reasons why spicy foods are good for you.

1. Naturally induce labor
2. Stimulating digestive system
3. Stimulating Contractions
4. Cancer-fighting and cancer-prevention

- A recent study shows that capsaicin can be used to fight pancreatic cancer. It slowed the growth of cancer cells and in some cases, even caused cancer cells to die off.
5. Alleviate inflammation

- Arthritis and psoriasis are cause by nerve damage and cause pain on joints. Capsaicin supposedly helps to ease that pain.
6. Relieve chronic pain
- In some cases, spicy foods containing capsaicin greatly reduced pain caused by headaches or osteoporosis.
7. Heart-health
- Cayenne and chili peppers can help to reduce cholesterol. Additionally statistics show that cultures that eat spicy foods (e.g. some Asian countries) frequently have a much lower rate of heart attack and stroke.
