Bell peppers are a high-quality source of vitamin C, with a content of more than 80 mg per 100 grams (taking red peppers as an example), which is about twice that of citrus fruits. Vitamin C can promote collagen synthesis and enhance skin elasticity; at the same time, it increases the activity of white blood cells and helps the body resist viral or bacterial infections.
