From the point from a Researcher in Epileptic Triggers and Food Allergies.....
As for spicy hot food, it's a 50/50 for there are some people who can eat Hot Spicy Foods with no problems....no seizures, stomach problems like ulcers.

On the other side of the coin, those who have allergies to Hot Spicy Foods, it's possible that the allergie could cause a seizure in some.

Be aware of what you eat.
