Kimchi content was identified from the food labels provided by the manufacturers.
Red pepper content was derived from the kimchi content in Table 3.
Capsaicinoid content was estimated based on the red pepper powder content in kimchi dumplings and the capsaicinoid content in red pepper powder at five levels (Figure 2).
