6 vitamin C-rich fruits and vegetables to boost immunity

Strawberries, papaya, and red bell peppers are packed with vitamin C, enhancing resistance, promoting collagen production, and protecting cells from oxidative damage.

Broccoli

100 g of broccoli contains approximately 81 mg of vitamin C. Beyond its immune-boosting and antioxidant properties, this vegetable is also rich in fiber, vitamin K, folate, and various phytonutrients that support heart health and strong bones.

Papaya

A 100 g serving of papaya offers 60-95 mg of vitamin C, which enhances immune function and skin health. This fruit also contains digestive enzymes like papain, fiber, vitamin A, and antioxidants, benefiting digestion and overall wellness. Enjoy fresh papaya, add it to smoothies, or mix it into fruit salads.

Guava

Guava provides 228-377 mg of vitamin C per 100 g, significantly more than oranges. In addition to its immune-boosting and antioxidant qualities, guava is packed with fiber, potassium, and other essential nutrients that aid digestion and cardiovascular health.

Strawberries

Strawberries offer an abundant supply of vitamin C, providing 59-97 mg per 100 g. Beyond supporting immune function and skin health, they contain fiber, folate, and antioxidants, which promote heart health and reduce inflammation.

Red bell peppers

Red bell peppers are nutrient-dense, delivering approximately 190 mg of vitamin C per 100 g—often 2-3 times more than oranges. In addition to bolstering immune function and skin health, red bell peppers are rich in beta-carotene, fiber, and antioxidants, all beneficial for eye health.

Kiwi

A 100 g serving of kiwi contains 64-92 mg of vitamin C, supporting immune function and collagen production. The fiber, potassium, and antioxidants in kiwi contribute to overall health and maintain cardiovascular wellness.
