Answers:
I have to disagree with previous answers!. The Capsaicin does release endorphins and that does give a sort of "high"!.
Endorphins are the brains natural form of Morphine, only stronger!. They do give a short term feeling of pleasure!. I am a chile head and have been for years!. Eating chiles has been shown to be an effective mild pain reliever!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Chili (the food) does not make you high!. Chile (the country) is not editable!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Capsaicin is what gives the heat, but in itself it has nothing to make you "high"!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
