About Green chili

Green chili, a staple in many cuisines including Mexican, Indian, and Southeast Asian, is a vibrant and flavorful ingredient known for its distinctive heat and versatility. These chilies are packed with essential nutrients, including vitamin C, vitamin A, potassium, and antioxidants, which help boost the immune system and support healthy skin. They are naturally low in calories, making them an excellent choice for weight-conscious diets. Capsaicin, the active compound responsible for their spiciness, has been linked to numerous health benefits, such as improved metabolism and anti-inflammatory properties. While their heat level can vary, green chilies should be consumed in moderation, as excessive intake may irritate the digestive system. Available fresh, dried, or in paste form, green chilies bring a delightful kick to dishes like curries, salsas, stir-fries, and soups, enhancing flavor while contributing to a nutrient-rich diet.
