Cantaloupe
This melon is not only sweet and hydrating but also serves as a good source of vitamins A and C. With 17.4 mg of vitamin C per cup, cantaloupe covers 19% of the daily value. It’s also high in fiber, contributing to digestive health. The beta-carotene, which gives cantaloupe its orange color, is converted into vitamin A in the body, supporting eye health and immune function. [5]
Parsley
Two tablespoons of fresh parsley offer 10 mg of vitamin C, 11% of the daily value. Apart from being a garnish, parsley is packed with vitamin K and antioxidants. A 2021 review of animal studies suggested that vitamin C could inhibit tumor growth when administered intravenously, though human studies are needed to confirm these findings. Including parsley in your diet can boost your bone health due to its vitamin K content. [6]
