Rest easy and tell that "gourmand" to blow it out. . . . -  if  "...eating
chiles has been known to aggravate arthritis."  then, pray tell, why do many
of the the soothing arthritis creams contain capsicum? - I believe his/her
statement should have said "...eating chiles had been know to STOP/SOOTHE
the pain of arthritis."
