Chiles are vegetables native to South America. Members of the nightshade family, they share a common heritage with tomatoes, eggplants, and potatoes. Chiles can also be used as a spice, as they are often dried and ground to be used for seasoning. Botanically, they are considered a berry bush. They may be used in either fresh or dried form in homeopathic medicine.
