The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not Red Hots, a type of spicy food, and ice-cold water affects the body. Lungs are a very important part of the human body, as oxygen is an important component humans need to survive. In the experiments, lung capacity and how long test subjects could hold their breaths was tested. It was found that Red Hots don’t affect the lungs too much, but ice-cold water does. This is probably because spicy foods that aren’t ridiculously spicy wear off faster than ice-cold water, and the actual lung capacity and how long the volunteers could hold their breaths was taken after the Red Hots were spit out.
 * Abstract**

Overall, it was found that ice-cold water does change how people’s lungs/breath reacts, while Red Hots, one brand of spicy candy, do not change how people’s lungs/breath reacts significantly. One reason my data may be important to the world is because if somebody is having lung problems, they may not want to use freezing cold water for anything because it may change their lungs even more for the worse. The hypothesis was only half correct, as spicy food didn’t change lung capacity or how long subjects could hold their breaths too much, but ice-cold water did more. One more follow-up experiment that could be done is whether hot water changes how long test subjects can hold their breaths, and their lung capacities.
