@LadyDuck , That is true , I agree with you! The heme iron is available in the meat, poultry and seafood and non heam iron is available in the vegetarian foods as mentioned by you. Vit C is required to absorb non heme iron. Heme iron is easily absorbed by the body than the non heme iron!

@AKRao24 It contains non-heme iron, the kind or iron found in plants like whole grains, nuts, seeds, legumes, and leafy greens. Those who suffer of iron deficiency need to have both heme and non-heme, or the iron is not absorbed by the body.

I love them and always keep fresh ones in the refrigerator. They have 0 calories, speed up the metabolism, protect against cancer, benefit the cardiovascular system, combat the common cold, act as a pain reliever, and are loaded with Vitamin C.

I am surprised to learn that considering that green chillies are actually slightly sour and they are generally not as spicy as the red ones.

I think Chilis has anti bacterial properties. What's interesting is does it really contain sugar?
