Yellow bell peppers FAQ
Are yellow bell peppers high in potassium?
No, yellow bell peppers are not high in potassium. A medium-sized yellow bell pepper (about 186 grams) has approximately 394 mg of potassium. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the recommended daily intake of potassium for adults is about 4700 mg, so a yellow bell pepper provides around 8% of your daily need.
Are yellow bell peppers low FODMAP?
Yes, yellow bell peppers are considered low FODMAP. FODMAPs are types of carbohydrates that some people have difficulty digesting, leading to gastrointestinal symptoms. According to Monash University, a leader in FODMAP research, a serving of a medium bell pepper (capsicum) at 52g is considered low in FODMAPs. Therefore, they can be included in a Low FODMAP diet which may be beneficial for individuals with digestive issues like Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).
