Volgograd resident died after eating Carolina Reaper pepper for a month. A 58-year-old man bought pepper on the marketplace and began eating it regularly.

He already had poor health - anemia, cirrhosis of the liver, but he was not treated. I don’t know if he was aware that eating hot peppers was contraindicated for him. He probably knew. Then Yuri was taken to the hospital, and today it became known that he died,” said his friend Oleg.
