Usually......Usually when you are craving spicy foods you are pregnant.If you are not pregnant and are still craving spicy food, you probably had a some a while ago and your body just saw it or got an old taste of it and wants more.....so if your body craves it. Go get some spicy food!!

While the psychology of the above can be true, More likely you are having a nutritional deficiency... Hot foods generally contain some variety of chili peppers, which are high in several nutrients.

Red chili's contain high amounts of vitamin C and carotene (provitamin A). Yellow and especially green chili's (which are essentially unripe fruit) contain a considerably lower amount of both substances. In addition, peppers are a good source of most B vitamins, and vitamin B6 in particular. They are very high in potassium, magnesium, and iron. Their high vitamin C content can also substantially increase the uptake of non-heme iron from other ingredients in a meal, such as beans and grains.
