>Is it dangerous or healthy?
Kind of neither, and both. Just like pretty much anything edible, in the right amounts it is not dangerous and can add some nutrition to your diet (it’s still a vegetable like bell peppers, just a lot more “flavorful”)
That being said, if you are sensitive to or overindulge in capsaicin it can be an irritant and *potentially* cause chemical burn type damage (it’s the active ingredient in a lot of pepper sprays, and medicines)
