Crushed paprika

Among the properties of ground paprika, it stands out its anti-oxidant benefits derived from a substance called lycopene, also present in tomatoes, which has an anti-free radical effect. This conclusion is supported by the results of different research funded by the regional government of Extremadura

In addition to this, it provides vitamin A or b-carotene and, to a lesser extent, vitamin B or riboflavin, as well as iron. Capsaicin is the component with more medicinal properties of the pepper, as it stimulates circulation and facilitates digestion

All peppers are proven to lower cholesterol and triglycerides. In addition, the spicy variant of this spice, such as La Vera, contains a substance called capsaicin, which is responsible for the spiciness and has extraordinary properties, including, according to the latest publications of international researchers, anti-cancer effects

So taking this Extremadura product would get: antioxidant effect, anticarcinogenic and lower cholesterol and triglycerides.
