Peppers, capsicum, green, raw

Green peppers, also known as capsicum, are vegetables. The figures here describe raw green peppers with the stalk and seeds removed. They consist mainly of water and provide vitamin C, folate and small amounts of carbohydrate. Per 100g, they contain 120mg of vitamin C, 36µg of folate, 2.6g of carbohydrate and 0.3g of fat.

Vitamin C supports normal immune function and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Folate is needed for normal cell division and the formation of blood cells. Raw green peppers are low in salt and saturated fat, although added ingredients can change these amounts when prepared as part of a dish. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
