Cayenne Pepper is a vibrant, spicy fruit from the Capsicum annuum plant, native to Central and South America. Packed with capsaicin, it not only adds heat to dishes but also offers numerous health benefits, such as boosting metabolism and promoting heart health. Commonly found in spicy cuisines like Mexican and Indian, cayenne pepper also contains vitamins A, C, and E, along with important antioxidants. While it can aid digestion and enhance circulation, too much can irritate the stomach. So, sprinkle it wisely and enjoy the kick!
