Where is hidden the C?
A few days before Genevieve posted about vitamin C.
How much vitamin c is enough?
There are various recommendations for different countries. Frenchman are advised 80mg per day, for Germans 75mg p.d., for Americans 60mg p.d., for Britishers 30mg p.d.,
But don´t worry, your body separates too much of vitamin c.
I want to show you what foods you can integrate into your food plans to pump the Vitamin C.
Vegetables
bell pepper 120mg/ 100g 1 weighs about 165g
broccoli 115mg/ 100g 1 weighs about 300g
Brussels sprouts 112mg/ 100g 10 weighs about 150g
kale 105mg/ 100g 1 cup weighs about 150g
fennel 93mg/ 100g 1 tube weighs about 300g
Fruits
acai berries 1700mg/ 100g 1 tablespoon weighs about 20g
seabuckthorn berries 450mg/ 100g 1 tablespoon weighs about 20g
guave 270mg/ 100g 1 fruit weighs between 50 and 300g
black currant 177mg/ 100g 1 tablespoon weighs about 20g
Herbs
parsley 160mg/ 100g 1 tablespoon weighs about 7g
Nobody eats 100g of parsley (I think) but remember to use it to garnish.... it's very healthy.
