About Green and red peppers

Green and red peppers, commonly called bell peppers, are vibrant vegetables native to Central and South America. They’re a staple in global cuisines, featured in dishes ranging from Mexican fajitas to Mediterranean salads. Rich in vitamins A and C, antioxidants, and fiber, peppers support immune health, vision, and digestive function. Red peppers contain more nutrients than green ones, as they’re ripened versions with higher levels of vitamin C and beta-carotene. Bell peppers are low in calories, making them ideal for weight management. Their natural sweetness lends itself to raw snacking or cooking in stir-fries, soups, and roasted dishes. While healthy overall, some preparation methods such as frying or serving with heavy dressings can add excess fats or calories. Whether enjoyed raw or cooked, peppers offer a nutritious burst of flavor and color to any plate.
