Eat more broccoli. A 1/2-cup serving provides 45 mg of vitamin C.
Add a slice of tomato to your sandwiches. A small tomato provides 25 mg of vitamin C.
Slice up a papaya or mango for dessert. Half a medium papaya or mango provides 95 mg of vitamin C.
Think peppers! Red, yellow, and orange peppers have about twice the vitamin C of green peppers.
More obscure vegetables, like kohlrabi and jicama, provide about 45 mg of vitamin C per half cup. Just grate each into a green salad.
Believe it or not, potatoes contain vitamin C, too! A small baked potato has 25 mg.
Kiwi fruit, the fuzzy little brown fruit with the deep green interior, has about 55 mg of vitamin C.
hope this helps! good luck, :)!
