Health notes
Yellow bell peppers are a source of vitamins, particularly Vitamin C, and antioxidants. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recognizes them as a food ingredient. International bodies like the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated many food ingredients, though specific evaluations for yellow bell peppers as a whole ingredient are not typically listed in the same way as isolated additives. Consuming them as part of a balanced diet is generally considered healthy.
