Best Answer

Choose red bell peppers for their high levels of antioxidant vitamins A and C, which help protect cells from free radicals. One cup of chopped red peppers contains three times the minimum amount of vitamin C and nearly 100 percent of the vitamin A recommended for a typical 2,000-calorie-a-day diet. Green and yellow peppers fall short in vitamin A. All peppers are naturally fat free and low calorie, and they contain three grams of fiber per chopped cup, making them excellent snacks or mealtime fillers.

Green pepper is possibly used more often in salads, but red, orange and yellow offer a variety of color as well as taste.
