The results which had been gathered and collected based on the recorded data included, a 0.4℃ increase in body temperature, after the consumption of mild salsa, and a 0.8℃ increase in body temperature, after the consumption of hot or spicy salsa. After group results and data had been calculated and recorded, the group data had signified that there had been minor differences between the calculated body temperatures of the test subject consuming the mild salsa and the test subject consuming the hot salsa. Though minor differences or changes between the body temperatures of the mild salsa eater and the hot salsa eater occurred, the maximum change in ℃ slightly varied with a 0.4℃ maximum change for the mild salsa consumer and a 0.8℃ maximum change for the spicy salsa consumer. Maximum changes which occurred in the class average results included a 0.41 ℃ change for the mild salsa eater and a 0.42 ℃ change for the hot …show more content…
