Do you mean chilis?  As in a hot pepper?  It might be an intolerance or allergy.  I can not eat them. ☹️

I have to eat them in extreme moderation, I love the flavor but they irritate my stomach and my intestines. It seems random with how it effects me, most of the times it seems to cause a constrictive and inflammatory effect on my bowels. But I have had a few types and blends that caused D instead of the normal C issues. Funny, I love red pepper but have to have it in just pinches. I love jalapenos and grew up eating cups of salsa etc. (mothers side was hispanic and I live in Texas). Now days I have to water it down and only use a tiny bit -_-.  I miss the heat and spice of things but now most times I just do a chew and spit with the spicy stuff then proceed to eat the non spicy food with the burn still in my mouth for that satisfaction.

Chilies can really irritate the gut, if you curious as to if it is the heat or the nightshade  or caspium family causing your issues try using a different source for spice. Pepper corns like black, white, green and sachuwan are not from the nightshade family nor actual peppers. Wasabi is another option for non pepper related heat. Try these in a elimination diet for find your issues. -_- for awhile I had a allergy to bell peppers after my diagnosis, yeah paprika in that also, thank god that went away.

      Hello, good afternoon!   I apologize, I didn’t see a notification and I’m just reading this. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and the link. Yes you are absolutely right, even so trying to get a response from them has been extremely difficult. They don’t answer but I will your practice of “guilty until proven innocent.”   I like and have a sense of trust here in this website, everyone is honest and thoughts are raw. The mutual understanding is amazing!   thank you Scott!

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.
