Just heard of it , and decided to share some fast google research :
Effects of dietary consumption
Ingestion of spicy food or ground jalapeño peppers does not cause mucosal erosions or other abnormalities. Some mucosal microbleeding has been found after eating red and black peppers, but there was no significant difference between aspirin (used as a control) and peppers. The question of whether chili ingestion increases or decreases risk of stomach cancer is mixed: a study of Mexican patients found self-reported capsaicin intake levels associated with increased stomach cancer rates (and this is independent of infection with Helicobacter pylori) while a study of Italians suggests eating hot peppers regularly was protective against stomach cancer.Carcinogenic, co-carcinogenic, and anticarcinogenic effects of capsaicin have been reported in animal studies.

Effects on weight loss and regain
There is no evidence showing that weight loss is directly correlated with ingesting capsaicin, but there is preliminary evidence for capsaicin possibly affecting weight regain where capsaicin may produce "a shift in substrate oxidation from carbohydrate to fat oxidation". The effect may elicit a decrease in appetite as well as a decrease in food intake. In one study, oral and gastrointestinal exposure to capsaicin increased satiety and reduced food intake. Long-term studies are limited because of the pungency of capsaicin.
