Capsicum, commonly known as chili pepper, is a vibrant and versatile fruit used worldwide, originating from the Americas. Available in various colors, sizes, and heat levels, it is a staple in cuisines such as Mexican, Indian, Thai, and Mediterranean. Rich in vitamins A, C, and B6, capsicum helps boost immunity, supports skin health, and promotes brain function. Capsaicin, the compound responsible for its spiciness, is known for its metabolism-boosting and pain-relieving properties. Low in calories and high in antioxidants, it can help reduce inflammation and support heart health. However, its heat may cause irritation for those sensitive to spicy foods or digestive issues when consumed in excess. Whether enjoyed raw, roasted, or dried, capsicum adds both flavor and nutritional value to a variety of dishes.
