Yeah at a certain point it’s not about how much mouth pain you can stand. It’s definitely unhealthy for your gut to eat that insane level of spicy food that often. Even in Indian and Szechuan cooking they are not trying to destroy you.
I found myself having to eat a lot more probiotics and stuff when I was eating spicy food all the time. Once you pass the habanero threshold I think there is potential for damage… at least that’s my experience.
My main guess is just ingesting a lot of some weird molecule and we have no way to process it really. Headline would kinda be the same with 135 Oreos in one sitting if the heat didn’t matter.
Eating hot peppers is actually quite good for your stomach unless you have irritable bowel syndrome, dyspepsia, or inflammatory bowel disease–in which case, hot peppers join a very long list of other foods that can cause or aggravate symptoms of those diseases.

Yeah my go to is ghost Pepper sauce, so it was way too much for my system
Not sure what’s causing the digestive reaction tho, as technically the capsaicin isn’t burning anything, it’s just a false signal from your nerves
I really wonder if there are actual risks, other than the ones caused by ingesting such large amount of food
