Capsicum peppers used for paprika are unusually rich in vitamin C, a fact discovered in 1932 by Hungary's 1937 Nobel prize-winner Albert Szent-Györgyi.[6] Much of the vitamin C content is retained in paprika, which contains more vitamin C than lemon juice by weight.[7]
Paprika is also high in other antioxidants,[8] containing about 10% of the level found in açaí berries. Prevalence of nutrients, however, must be balanced against quantities ingested, which are generally negligible for spices.
