American Persimmons
The American persimmon provides 16.5 mg of vitamin C, 18% of the daily value. This fruit is particularly interesting because it contains nearly nine times more vitamin C than its Japanese counterpart. Besides vitamin C, persimmons are a good source of fiber and antioxidants, supporting heart health and reducing inflammation.
Strawberries
Strawberries offer a generous 97 mg of vitamin C per cup, equaling 108% of the daily value. These berries are not just rich in vitamin C but also manganese, flavonoids, and folate. Regular consumption of strawberries has been associated with reduced risks of cardiovascular diseases, obesity, and diabetes, thanks to their high nutrient and antioxidant content.
