Chili powder is a good source of dietary fiber, folic acid, vitamins A, C, B6, K, and manganese.

Since it comes from chili peppers, it contains lutein, zeaxanthin, beta-carotene, and lycopene.

The main component is capsaicin, which is responsible for the spiciness of the fruits.

Additionally, chili powder has therapeutic properties:

• Stimulates and enhances blood circulation.
• Balances blood pressure and reduces high blood pressure.
• Antiseptic and antibacterial properties.
• Assists in food digestion and acts against digestive ulcers.
• Antioxidant and anticancer properties that kill prostate cancer cells.
