The British Ministry of Health confirms that eating ground red pepper helps prevent diabetes by regulating blood sugar levels. The report indicates that eating this spice by a diabetic patient helps improve the digestive process in the body and regulates blood sugar levels more effectively. In addition, it reduces the chances of giving birth to children with high blood sugar levels for mothers suffering from diabetes.
Ground red hot pepper also reduces blood cholesterol, lowers triglyceride levels in the body, and reduces platelet aggregation, as it increases the body’s ability to dissolve fibrin, which is an essential substance in the formation of blood clots.
Ideas for adding ground red pepper to your food:
– Eat hot pepper by adding it to your salad plate with a little olive oil that will reduce its burning taste.
– Try adding it to some other foods that may increase its effectiveness and therapeutic power such as green pepper and tomatoes rich in minerals and vitamins.
– Also add it to a plate of beans, fava beans, chickpeas or any type of legumes that contain a high amount of protein and fiber as this will help you increase the feeling of fullness for a longer period.
– You can eat it with eggs, corn flakes or low-fat cheese as it will add calcium and protein to it that will increase satiety and fill the stomach.
– Use dried hot pepper as a type of spice and seasoning added to your various meals, and it is preferable to eat it fresh because it is rich in antioxidants, fiber and vitamins.
