Peppers are healthy

Why are peppers healthy, what's in the peppers?
-
The direct effect of peppers has nothing to do with lowering your cholesterol. Indirectly, it can cause this effect. Hot peppers (especially the red ones) are good for the heart!

Peppers healthy for the hard?

Let's start with the substances that make the peppers so hot. The dust of capsaicin ensures that chili peppers and jalapeño, for example, become hot.
-
This substance (capsaicin) can influence cholesterol and blood pressure. For example, it would be a natural blood thinner that would prevent blood clots.

-
There has been a study to what extent this substance affects cholesterol. It would be too dangerous to test this on humans, so it was first tested on a hamster (I don't agree, but hey) that was put on a high cholesterol diet.
-
The effect of capsaicin has 2 positive points.
-
1. It ensures that cholesterol can be broken down better in combination with the thinning of cholesterol accumulations around damaged veins.
-
2. We humans make a gene that can cause our veins to shrink. Capsaicin inhibits the production of this gene!
-
Research also shows that if you combine the pepper with garlic this also lowers cholesterol.
-
With this knowledge you suddenly have many more possibilities to make a healthy recipe that is not only spicy, but also very tasty.
-
You are not supposed to eat a lot of hot peppers. In fact, eating an excessive amount of peppers causes "restless" bowel function and bowel movements.
-
The best diet has been the same for years: Healthy and varied food!
-
It is important to remember that supplements as well as hot peppers are not a substitute for medication, for example. You should never stop prescribed medication just like that.
-
Any consultation with your doctor is therefore always advisable!
Recipe with hot peppers
-
To help you eat a recipe with pepper every now and then, I have come up with a recipe for you to use.
-
Stir-frying is one of the easiest ways to eat spicy food. This is also very popular in Thai cuisine, but then it is called wok. Chicken is a good lean piece of meat that has little, or at least the least effect on your cholesterol. Because of the proteins in the chicken you also have a less spicy dish than without those proteins because they can neutralize the kernel of the pepper.
-
Ingredients:
-
The garlic and onion support the action against high cholesterol because this combination also inhibits inflammation. As a result, you are less likely to suffer from damage to the blood vessels and LDL cholesterol can also form a plaque less quickly. The leek has an enormous amount of fiber that is also non-digestible, which has the advantage that LDL cholesterol from food attaches to it and is not absorbed by the intestines.
-
Buy sliced chicken or cut a chicken fillet into pieces yourself. First fry it with olive or coconut oil. When the chicken is nicely baked you can add the other ingredients to this mix. You can already prepare them.
-
You can cut the pepper into very small pieces or even use the peppercorns, which you add to the chicken. Crush a clove of garlic and add that too. You can wash the bell pepper first and then cut it in half. Cut off the head and the part with the seeds. Then you can cut the bell pepper into smaller pieces as desired. Peel off the outer layers of the onion and cut the onion into pieces. Add it to the stir-fry mix. Remove the outer layers from the leek and cut the leek into pieces. Add it to the mix. Then add the whole mix to the chicken and stir-fry until everything is cooked through.

In combination with other factors that lower cholesterol, peppers are very suitable as an extra aid to lower your cholesterol in a natural way. This is due to the active substance capsain and the influence it has on your nervous system and the functioning of your body. You don't have to eat peppers every day, as this can also cause stomach and intestinal complaints. However, eating a spicy dish 1 or 2 days a week certainly does not hurt to lower your cholesterol.
-
In addition to eating a healthy, high-fiber, fat and low-sugar diet, exercise also helps against high cholesterol. The peppers are a good addition to walk the natural way to healthy cholesterol even faster.
