Red, Yellow, Green Peppers: This is The Healthiest

Paprika: That means the color

The color of the pepper primarily provides information about its degree of ripeness at the time of harvest.

• Green peppers are still unripe. As they ripen, green peppers turn yellow and end up red.
• With increasing maturity, the amount of certain ingredients also changes. Unripe, still green peppers have the fewest carbohydrates because they contain less sugar. Red peppers, on the other hand, have the highest carbohydrate content and taste the sweetest.
• Red peppers contain significantly more than green peppers, not just sugar, but also vitamins – especially vitamin C.
• Red peppers even contain twice as much potassium as unripe ones.
• The red pepper is also ahead of its yellow and green relatives when it comes to secondary plant substances. The red fruit brings significantly more beta-carotene. This dye is converted to provitamin A in the body.
• Conclusion: They are all healthy – but the healthiest is the red pepper.
