What are the health benefits of eating peppers?

Chili peppers have certain health benefits, so let me tell you about them today:

Beware of Gallstones

Eating green peppers regularly can prevent gallstones. Green peppers are rich in vitamins, especially vitamin C, which can convert excess cholesterol in the body into bile acid, thereby preventing gallstones. People who already have gallstones can eat more green peppers rich in vitamin C, which can play a certain role in alleviating the condition.

Relieve skin pain

Studies have found that capsaicin can relieve skin pain caused by many diseases.

Chili pepper has weight loss effect

Chili peppers contain an ingredient that can effectively burn body fat and promote metabolism, thereby achieving the effect of weight loss. In the Japanese market, there are already a variety of chili pepper products suitable for women.

Healthy ways to eat peppers

Peppers are best eaten cooked

Chili peppers come in dried, fresh, and pickled varieties. Shen Yanying suggests that fresh peppers are better because they are richer in nutrients. In addition, it is best to cook peppers. Raw peppers contain a lot of capsaicin, which may irritate the oral and gastrointestinal mucosa. After heating, the irritation to the gastrointestinal tract will be reduced.

In terms of taste, peppers can be divided into spicy, sour and hot, and mustard. Spicy peppers contain the heat of Sichuan peppercorns, which is more likely to cause internal heat, so you should eat less. Pickled peppers contain less capsaicin; the vinegar in sour and hot peppers has a detoxifying effect, reducing the chance of internal heat, so you can eat more appropriately.
