    There are some wonderful videos on You Tube of chilli heads munching on chilli pods! I don't think I'd recommend it! Some chillis can dissolve your rubber gloves when you cut them up in great numbers Dehydration can cause headaches, remedy drink 2 litres of water/day, and poor posture will also cause them. Your eartips should be aligned with your shoulders.
    Ibuprofen is an anti-inflammatory, it too can irritate the stomach lining.
