VERIFY: Can spicy food actually cool you down on a hot day? - 4WWL
Will the sweat caused by spicy food help you beat the summer heat?
On a sweltering day like today, you probably have your go-to ways of cooling off, but we found a study that went against conventional wisdom and that baffled us.
A Canadian study states that in the heat, if you drink hot drinks, your body will sweat more and that will cool your body temperature and cool you down. And then we started thinking what about hot, spicy local food.
Well, it all sounded counter intuitive to common sense, so we decided to verify.
