Peppers, capsicum, green, boiled in unsalted water

Green capsicum peppers are vegetables; the figures here describe peppers sliced and boiled in unsalted water. They provide vitamin C and small amounts of carbohydrate, with little fat or protein. Per 100g, they contain 69mg of vitamin C, 2.6g of carbohydrate, 0.5g of fat and 0.01g of salt.

Vitamin C supports normal collagen formation, which is needed for skin, cartilage and blood vessels. It also helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. The salt content shown is low, but adding salt during cooking or serving with salty sauces will increase it. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
