| Key benefits of red pepper
Red peppers are an excellent source of vitamin C, contain high antioxidant levels and are linked to a reduced risk of heart disease. Red peppers are the sweeter and riper versions of green peppers. They can be eaten in many different ways and because they are low in calories, can be eaten freely. Beta-cryptoxanthin, vitamin E and other carotenoids are best absorbed by the body when they are eaten with oil, so they are best eaten as part of a meal.

Although beets are messy, the rich red pigments that stain your clothes, hands, and urine is betacyanin, a potent cancer fighter. Beets also contain betaine, an unusual substance that is found in few foods. This phytochemical is important for detoxifying homocysteine and reducing heart disease risk. Red beets are a great source of salicylic acid, a close relative of aspirin. Salicylic acid has anti-inflammatory properties that may help to lower the risk of heart disease by reducing blood clots and the formation of plaque on artery walls. Besides all the phytochemical properties, beets supply vitamin C, folate, potassium, magnesium, iron and fiber providing a great team of disease fighters. Beet tops or greens are also delicious and nutritious. Beet tops are loaded with disease fighting beta-carotene, fiber, calcium, magnesium, vitamin C, potassium, and richer in iron than spinach. |
