How to quickly reduce spiciness after eating something too spicy
Hold a small pinch of salt in your mouth for a moment, then spit it out and rinse your mouth. This can quickly eliminate the burning sensation of spiciness.

The method you shared is quite unique. After checking, I found it utilizes the principle of pain distraction through taste receptor competition. While salt doesn't chemically neutralize capsaicin, this wisdom of sensory management indeed provides temporary relief from the burning sensation. I've learned a lot. Besides salt, have you also tried using dairy products or acidic substances to counteract the spiciness? Would the effect be more pronounced?

Spiciness is a pain sensation, not a taste, for humans, and since chili peppers are fat-soluble, milk is the most effective.
