Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Red Pepper
Metabolic Effect: Strengthens the immune system thanks to its vitamin C content. It helps with weight control due to its low calorie content.
Consumption Recommendation: Can be consumed in salads, meals or raw. Vitamin A absorption increases when consumed with olive oil.
Things to Consider: Excessive consumption may cause heartburn in some people. One medium-sized red pepper meets most of the daily vitamin C needs.
Exercise Equivalent: It is enough to walk for about 7 minutes to burn this calorie. Consume without peeling to get more fiber.
