Yes, consuming extremely high amounts of capsaicin can be fatal. However, it is unlikely to occur through normal consumption of spicy foods and would require ingesting highly concentrated forms of capsaicin or supplements. Symptoms of capsaicin overdose include severe burning sensation, difficulty breathing, and potential organ damage.
