Red chili peppers also have healing properties, and herbalists have used them to boost the immune system, ward off colds, and soothe stomach ulcers, as well as help flush out toxins in the body. Now, there is a weight loss diet called “The Master Cleanse” that uses red chili tea to flush toxins from the body and lose weight.

Method 1 of 2: Making Red Chili Tea to Boost Immune System
Step 1. Take 1 teaspoon (4.9 ml) of red chili and put it in a cup
It's best to start with a small amount of red chili, and gradually increase it to a teaspoon. That way, you won't be too spicy, especially if you're not used to eating red chilies before
Step 2. Pour hot water into the cup
It's best to use almost boiling water.
Step 3. Stir in red chilies and water until dissolved
You will see the red chili flakes floating in the cup.
Step 4. Add the juice of half a lemon to the tea cup
Stir until evenly distributed.
Step 5. Cool the tea for 1-2 minutes before drinking
When the cup can be held without feeling hot, drink your tea.
Step 6. Taste your red chili tea
Sip slowly until your tea runs out. Drink it in the morning to increase energy and speed up metabolism. You also drink this tea before exercise to increase energy.
Step 7. Add other ingredients
Some people like to put fresh ginger slices in a cup of hot water and let it soak before adding the red chilies and lemon. Ginger will help kill harmful bacteria in the body.
Try adding molasses or stevia if you want to add sweetness without sugar
