Dietitian note

Spicy foods, including those with pepper, can irritate the lining of the esophagus and trigger heartburn and acid reflux. The capsaicin in peppers can stimulate the production of stomach acid and relax the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), allowing stomach acid to flow back into the esophagus
