Choosing vegetables high in vitamin just plain makes good sense, especially during flu and cold season.
According to NutritionData,freeze dried sweet peppers head the list of vegetables high in vitamin C. These amazing vegetables contain 1900mg of vitamin C per 100 gram serving. Fresh peppers range for 183 to 128 mg depending on the variety.
Freeze dried chives provide 600 mg of vitamin C per 100 gram serving. Add chives to baked potatoes, sauces, soups and stews for delicate onion flavor and a dose of Vitamin C, too.
One cup of sliced horseradish-tree pods (also known as the malunggay tree) provide 141 mg of vitamin C. Add to soups or stews to increase your Vitamin C intake.
Raw parsley contains 133 % of the RDA of vitamin C in a one cup serving with 133mg mg per 100 grams. Don't let your parley go to waste as a cute garnish.
Raw Scotch Kale weighs in right behind parley with 130 mg of vitamin C per 100 grams. Add to tossed salads for variety and plenty of vitamins.
Don't worry because tomatoes and broccoli didn't make the cut. They both provide over 100% of the RDA for vitamin C , too.
Great list.
Great list.
I'm going to have to incorporate all of these into my diet, but I love kale!
