Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is a powerhouse nutrient that plays a crucial role in supporting a healthy immune system, promoting skin health, and Incorporating foods rich in vitamin C into our diets is more important than ever, if we want to stay as healthy as possible.
So, how can we meet our daily vitamin C needs?
Citrus Fruits:
When it comes to vitamin C, citrus fruits are often the first to come to mind. Oranges, grapefruits, lemons, and limes are all excellent sources of this immune-supporting nutrient. Whether enjoyed fresh as a snack or squeezed into a refreshing glass of juice, citrus fruits are a tasty and convenient way to increase your vitamin C intake.
Bell Peppers:
Did you know that bell peppers contain more vitamin C than most citrus fruits? Red, yellow, and green bell peppers are all packed with this essential nutrient, making them a colourful addition to any meal. Add them to salads, stir-fries, or enjoy them raw with hummus for a nutritious snack.
Broccoli:
This veggie is not only rich in vitamin C but also provides fibre, vitamins K and A, and other essential nutrients. Steam it, roast it, or toss it into stir-fries for a nutritious and flavourful addition to your meals. We have made this simple for you with our Broccoli, Celery, Soursop juice.
Strawberries:
Not only are strawberries delicious, but they're also loaded with vitamin C. These juicy berries are perfect for snacking, adding to smoothies, or topping off your morning bowl of oatmeal. With their sweet flavour and impressive nutritional profile, strawberries are a versatile fruit that can easily be incorporated into your diet.
Kiwi:
Don't let their small size fool you—kiwis are packed with vitamin C. These fuzzy fruits are not only delicious but also incredibly nutritious. Enjoy them on their own, blend them into smoothies, or add them to fruit salads for a refreshing burst of flavour and vitamin C.
