Bell peppers, also known as sweet peppers, are vibrant vegetables that come in a variety of colors, including green, red, yellow, and orange. Native to Central and South America, they are widely used in global cuisines, from Mediterranean dishes to Asian stir-fries. Bell peppers are rich in vitamins, particularly vitamin C and vitamin A, as well as antioxidants like beta-carotene, which support immune health and improve skin and eye health. They also provide dietary fiber, aiding digestion and promoting satiety. Low in calories, fat-free, and hydrating, bell peppers are ideal for weight management and overall wellness. Red bell peppers are the sweetest and most nutrient-dense of the group, while green peppers tend to have a slightly earthy flavor. Their crisp texture and versatility make them perfect for raw snacking, cooking, or stuffing. However, they may contain natural sugars, which should be monitored by individuals with specific dietary needs.
