What do chilli peppers have to do with the Nobel Prize?

Chilli peppers contain capsaicin, a pungent compound that induces a burning sensation when it comes into contact with skin. 2021 medicine laureate David Julius put this to good use, using capsaicin to identify a sensor in the nerve endings of the skin that responds to heat - it becomes activated at temperatures perceived as painful. This breakthrough discovery launched intense research activities leading to a rapid increase in our understanding of how our nervous system senses heat and cold.

The new Dietary Guidelines call for prioritizing high-quality protein, healthy fats, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains—and avoiding highly processed foods and refined carbohydrates.
