Benefits

Green bell peppers are my secret weapon for adding nutrition and crunch to meals! I love how versatile and nutrient dense they are. When I chop them into salads or stir-fries I feel like I’m giving my body a vitamin and mineral boost. I love that they have more vitamin C than oranges – what’s not to love? I recommend green bell peppers to my clients as a low calorie high nutrient food that can be added to any dish. The crunch and slight tang is a delight and I love showing how something so simple can be so powerful. Every time I eat green bell peppers I feel like I’m making a smart and delicious choice for my overall health. Here are the benefits:

Rich in Vitamin C: Green bell peppers are an excellent source of vitamin C, which supports immune health, helps the body absorb iron, and promotes collagen production for healthy skin and wound healing.
Supports Eye Health: They contain lutein and zeaxanthin, antioxidants that protect the eyes from oxidative damage, potentially reducing the risk of cataracts and macular degeneration.
Promotes Digestive Health: With their high fiber content, green bell peppers help maintain a healthy gut by preventing constipation and supporting beneficial gut bacteria.
May Prevent Anemia: Green bell peppers provide iron and are rich in vitamin C, which enhances iron absorption, making them beneficial in preventing and managing iron-deficiency anemia.
Packed with Antioxidants: They are loaded with antioxidants like carotenoids and phenolic acids, which may reduce inflammation and lower the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and cancer.
