The video discusses two types of heart problems: an enlarged heart and a myocardial bridge. An enlarged heart can be dilated or thickened, potentially leading to sudden death in young athletes. A myocardial bridge occurs when a heart artery tunnels into the heart muscle, which can cause blood flow issues during high activity. Capsaicin, found in chili, may reduce inflammation but can cause heart problems in high doses. These heart issues often go undetected until severe symptoms appear, such as fainting from a rhythm problem.
