Most people don t eat a large quantity of jalapeno peppers at one time. Their intense heat makes even a few slices of this pepper per meal enough to satisfy most people s desire for spice. Eating one whole jalapeno pepper gives you only about 4 calories and less than 1 gram of fat, protein and carbohydrate, according the U.S. Department of Agriculture. This makes jalapeno peppers an excellent flavor addition for any weight management or weight loss plan. They re also a great seasoning, if you re watching your daily salt intake or trying to limit your fat intake to improve blood pressure or cholesterol.
