I eat peppers all the time! Every meal! I keep hot everything around cause I crave it all the time! And in the beginning it helped with my heartburn! The capson in it really helps with the acid.

It wont affect ur baby don't worry. I crave spicy food a couple times a month and I eat it. I don't get heartburn either. Depends on the person. So I would eat what u want ur only preggo once! Or however many times u want. Lol try it once n see how ur body reacts. Oh and when I crave food....lets say I'm craving cheese I think my body probably needs the calcium so ill eat it.
