About

The combination of garlic with capsicum keep up good health and taste. Garlic especially is very good for managing high cholesterol levels, prevents the common cold and flu and is a natural antibiotic with blood cleansing properties.

Capsicum stimulates stomach secretions and improves digestion; it's good for diabetics, promotes cardiovascular health by helping lower blood pressure, speeds up the metabolism to burn more calories, and has anti-inflammatory properties.

Thus a combination of these two to make a chutney for dosa or a spread on bread at breakfast.
