“头痛”辣椒

A man entered a contest1 Where he ate the hottest pepper2 in the world！ Then he got bad headaches. He went to the hospital. What caused his headaches？ Doctors think it was the chemical（化学物质）that makes peppers hot.

The doctors took pictures of the mans brain. They looked at the tubes3 that carry blood from the heart to the brain. Some of them were getting too thin. His blood could not move very well.

Good news！ The size of the tubes went back to normal4！ He was better after five weeks.

We know that hot temperatures can be dangerous. Now we know that hot peppers can be， too.

一名男子參加吃辣椒大赛。他在吃了世界第一辣的辣椒之后，深受头痛之苦。到底是什么引发了他的症状？就医后，医生认为是辣椒中致辣的化学物质。

医生在扫描其大脑后发现，负责从心脏向脑部供血的血管收缩变窄，导致血液无法顺畅流通。

好消息是，五周后男子的脑血管恢复了常态。

一直以为高温天气会伤人身体，原来辣椒的威力也不可小觑。
