The mildest hot peppers are the Serrano, yellow hot wax peppers, and red cayenne peppers.

The absolute mildest peppers that are not hot are bell peppers.

The heat of the average Jalapeno Pepper is 2,500 to 5,000 Scoville units.

The hottest hot pepper is the Ghost Pepper which is considered to be the hottest Jalapeno Pepper in the world.

The next hottest Jalapeno Pepper besides the Ghost Pepper is the Carolina Reaper.

Spicy peppers and Jalapeno peppers could kill you if you were able to eat enough of them.

However it's impossible for a human to eat enough peppers to kill them and you'd have to eat around 500 or more Jalapeno Peppers in one day for it to possibly kill you.

The same is true for spicy foods.

However spicy foods can lead to ulcers if eaten too much but in moderation the spicy food is okay.

Spicy food could kill you if you ate enough of the spicy food.

However for spicy food to be lethal you would have to eat several pounds or basically a big pot of spice food before it became lethal.

Your stomach will begin hurting from the spicy food long before you're able to eat enough spicy food for it to be deadly and kill you.

So while spicy food does have the ability to kill you if eaten enough of it it's really impossible to eat enough spicy food for it to be a problem.

Your body would stop you from eating anymore spicy food before you actually gotten sick enough from the spicy food to die from it.

Spicy food and Jalapeno peppers can also sometimes eat at your stomach lining if you eat too much of it as well so be careful.

Eating spicy food and Jalapeno peppers in moderation is okay but don't eat too much of it.
