Sweet peppers, also known as bell peppers, are vibrant, crunchy vegetables popular in cuisines worldwide. Native to Central and South America, these peppers come in a variety of colors—green, red, yellow, and orange—each offering a slightly different flavor profile, from earthy to sweet. Rich in vitamins A and C, sweet peppers are loaded with antioxidants, which are essential for boosting immunity and promoting healthy skin and eyes. They are also a good source of fiber, aiding digestion, and low in calories, making them ideal for weight management. Versatile in cooking, sweet peppers are commonly roasted, sautéed, stuffed, or enjoyed raw in salads. They contain capsaicin in minimal amounts, meaning they lack the heat of chili peppers and are safe for those who prefer milder flavors. However, individuals with sensitive digestion might experience mild bloating if consumed in excess. A nutritious and flavorful addition to your diet!
