Too much hot sauce can lead to stomach issues including ulcers and stomach lining issues as in the stomach lining can get eaten away due to the hot sauce and other spicy foods when consumed too much.

It's best to not eat hot sauce everyday or on everything you eat because too much hot sauce can be bad for you although the problems won't likely happen right away.

It can take years for the problems from hot sauce to occur after consuming the hot sauce.

If you're eating hot sauce and notice side effects such as heartburn, abdominal pain, diarrhea, or anorectal discomfort etc then you're likely eating too much hot sauce and it's telling you to cut back on the amount of hot sauce you're eating.

The ingredients in hot sauce can be healthy for you in moderation and may even prevent things such as cancer and boost your bodies immune system.

But when hot sauce, hot peppers and other spicy foods are consumed in excess it can cause stomach and other health issues.
