                                While green chilies are packed with beneficial vitamins and antioxidants, the active compound capsaicin can cause significant digestive distress for sensitive individuals. Therefore, those with pre-existing gastrointestinal conditions, certain chronic health problems, and members of vulnerable populations should know who should not eat green chilies.
