Red capsicum, commonly known as red bell pepper, is a versatile vegetable celebrated for its sweet flavor and vibrant color. Native to Central and South America, it has become a staple in global cuisines like Mediterranean, Mexican, and Asian dishes. Rich in vitamins A and C, one capsicum delivers more than twice the daily recommended intake of vitamin C, promoting immune health and skin vitality. It also contains antioxidants, including beta-carotene and lycopene, which support heart and eye health. Low in calories and high in fiber, red capsicum is excellent for weight management and digestion, while its water content aids hydration. It is free of fats and cholesterol, making it a heart-friendly choice. Whether roasted, stuffed, or eaten raw, red capsicum adds nutrition and color to any meal, though individuals with nightshade sensitivities should consume with care.
