Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Chili Pepper

Metabolic Effect: Thanks to the capsaicin it contains, it speeds up metabolism and creates a thermogenic effect. This can support fat burning and help with weight control.
Consumption Recommendation: It can be consumed fresh with meals or in salads. To reduce the spicy taste, it can be consumed with yogurt or buttermilk. However, those with stomach ailments are advised to consume it carefully.
Things to Consider: Excessive consumption can lead to heartburn or digestive problems. One medium-sized chili pepper can meet a significant portion of the daily vitamin C requirement.
Exercise Equivalent: About 5 minutes of light-paced walking is enough to burn the 27 calories in chili pepper. You can easily expend it with your daily activities.
