Capsicum chinense Jacq. fruit plays an immunomodulatory role in cytokine attenuation and DNA damage protection.
Capsicum chinense (C. chinense) Jacq., recognized for its bioactive compounds, has attracted interest due to its possible immunomodulatory and DNA-damage-protective effects. This study aimed to assess the immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and DNA protection abilities of organic extracts (methanol, ethyl acetate, and petroleum ether) from C. chinense. The immunomodulatory effects were evaluated in Long Evans rats induced with SRBC.

Spices have been widely used as food flavorings and folk medicines for thousands of years. Numerous studies have documented the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects of spices, which might be related to prevention and treatment of several cancers, including lung, liver, breast, stomach, colorectum, cervix, and prostate cancers. Several spices are potential sources for prevention and treatment of cancers, such as Curcuma longa (tumeric), Nigella sativa (black cumin), Zingiber officinale (ginger), Allium sativum (garlic), Crocus sativus (saffron), Piper nigrum (black pepper

Worldwide, since ages and nowadays, traditional medicine is well known, owing to its biodiversity, which immensely contributed to the advancement and development of complementary and alternative medicines. There is a wide range of spices, herbs, and trees known for their medicinal uses. Chilli peppers, a vegetable cum spice crop, are bestowed with natural bioactive compounds, flavonoids, capsaicinoids, phytochemicals, phytonutrients, and pharmacologically active compounds with potential health benefits. Such compounds manifest their functionality over solo-treatment by operating in synergy and

BACKGROUND: Low-back pain is a common condition and a substantial economic burden in industrialized societies. A large proportion of patients with chronic low-back pain use complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), visit CAM practitioners, or both. Several herbal medicines have been purported for use in low-back pain. OBJECTIVES: To determine the effectiveness of herbal medicine for non-specific low-back pain. SEARCH STRATEGY: We searched the following electronic databases: Cochrane Complementary Medicine Field Trials Register (Issue 3, 2005), MEDLINE (1966 to July 2005), EMBASE (1980 to J

BACKGROUND: Low-back pain (LBP) is a common condition and imposes a substantial economic burden upon people living in industrialized societies. A large proportion of people with chronic LBP use complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), visit CAM practitioners, or both. Several herbal medicines have been purported for use in treating people with LBP. This is an update of a Cochrane Review first published in 2006. OBJECTIVES: To determine the effectiveness of herbal medicine for non-specific LBP.

Seguridad y Precauciones
En relación con el uso de Capsicum chinense (habanero), es imperativo abordar la seguridad desde diversas dimensiones fisiológicas. En cuanto al embarazo y la lactancia, la evidencia científica es limitada y no existen estudios clínicos robustos que establezcan una dosis segura para el consumo de capsaicina concentrada en estas etapas. Se debe proceder con extrema cautela; la ingesta de altas concentraciones de capsaicina puede provocar irritación gastrointestinal severa, lo cual, en mujeres gestantes, podría derivar en malestar sistémico o estrés digestivo innecesario. Durante la lactancia, existe la posibilidad de que los compuestos fenólicos pasen a la leche materna, lo que podría causar irritación o cólicos en el lactante debido a la sensibilidad de su sistema digestivo inmaduro. Respecto a la población infantil, los niños menores de 12 años deben evitar el consumo de habanero debido a que su mucosa gástrica y esofágica es mucho más sensible a los agentes irritantes, lo que puede provocar gastritis aguda o episodios de reflujo gastroesofágico severo. En términos de interacciones farmacológicas, la capsaicina puede alterar la farmacocinética de diversos medicamentos.
