Capsicum - Red (Sliced)

Rich in Vitamins A, B6 and C, iron, magnesium and calcium, Capsicum comes in red, green and yellow colour which indicates high levels of beta carotene and lycopene, which makes them amazingly heart healthy. Capsicums reduce anxiety levels, hypertension and bloating and also help cure iron deficiencies. Capsicums increase your metabolic rate, so if you are on a diet this vegetable is the way to go. Green capsicums are the least mature when picked and taste slightly bitter. Orange and yellow are a little more mature and have a slightly fruity taste. Red capsicums are the most mature and contain almost 11 times the beta carotene that green ones do.
