        Podmates, 
        
        I *think* we've covered this so it may be a review, BUT in 
looking at issues of exercise and weight loss I ran across the comment
that exercise releases beta endorphins.  What kind of endorphins does
capsaicin (dealing in generics with both as there are several capsaicins
and several endorphins) induce?  I mean, chilis are lowfat, high fibre,
high nutrition, so it looks like a win overall as it is, but what else?

        I am overwintering two chinchi plants and one orange habenero
plant indoors.  We'll see how they do.  I want both chinchi pods and 
seeds from this.  I find that growing chilis in pots results in smaller
pods no matter the variety, alas.
