Does cayanne pepper assist in weight loss? it is relatively inexpensive and has other supposed benefits. any dangers if taken w/food+ no health issues

Flavor: You may take cayenne pepper for taste and flavor, but do not expect it to help in weight loss, nor can you count on any health benefits from peppers. Weight loss is not easy, but requires restricting your caloric intake and increasing exercise.
