About where the most vit­a­min C is found, read today in our mate­r­i­al.

Rose hip

You may be sur­prised, but the most vit­a­min C is found in rose hips, and not in cit­rus fruits, as many peo­ple think. 100 grams of this berry con­tains up to 1000 mil­ligrams of ascor­bic acid.

Often decoc­tions and teas are pre­pared from rose hips. It is they who save dur­ing beriberi or in the win­ter sea­son. But it is impor­tant to know that in no case should you brew rose­hips with boil­ing water. After all, vit­a­min C will evap­o­rate, and the decoc­tion will lose all its ben­e­fi­cial prop­er­ties. There­fore, do not bring the water to a boil! Pour the crushed rose hips with cooled water and let it brew for at least 6 hours.

Sweet red pepper

This veg­etable takes an hon­or­able sec­ond place. 100 grams of pep­per con­tains up to 250 mil­ligrams of ascor­bic acid. Doc­tors rec­om­mend eat­ing up to 50 grams of red pep­per per day, which will be your dai­ly allowance.

Red pep­per improves diges­tion, low­ers blood sug­ar, and also has hematopoi­et­ic prop­er­ties. And thanks to the many use­ful ele­ments, pep­per heals the arter­ies and veins, mak­ing them more elas­tic.
