"Super substances" that rejuvenate the body are abundant in the 6 fruits below.

(Dan Tri) - Guava, oranges, strawberries... are fruits rich in vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant that helps neutralize free radicals, protect cells from damage, and slow down the aging process.

Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin that is essential for the body and is found in many foods, especially fruits and vegetables. It acts as an antioxidant in the body and can help support the immune system, improve heart health, and heal wounds.

In addition, vitamin C helps synthesize collagen, helps firm the skin, and reduces wrinkles. Therefore, many studies suggest that vitamin C has the effect of slowing down the aging process.

Here are six fruits that contain high levels of vitamin C.

Strawberry

One cup of sliced ​​strawberries (166g) can provide up to 97mg of vitamin C, equivalent to about 108% of the daily vitamin C requirement.

In addition to vitamin C, strawberries contain manganese, flavonoids, folate, and many other beneficial antioxidants.

One study found that 26 grams of dried strawberries may support brain function, increase antioxidant capacity, and reduce systolic blood pressure.

Guava

One guava contains about 125 mg of vitamin C, which is 138% of the daily requirement. Additionally, guava is particularly rich in the antioxidant lycopene. A small 2022 study found that lycopene has some anti-cancer benefits.

Additionally, guava contains fiber which can help relieve constipation.

Black grapes

Half a cup (56g) of black grapes contains about 102mg of vitamin C, equivalent to 113% of the daily requirement.

Black grapes get their deep, rich color from anthocyanins, a type of flavonoid that has antioxidant properties.

Studies have shown that people who eat diets rich in antioxidants like vitamin C and anthocyanins may help reduce damage linked to diseases like heart disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases.

Melon

This delicious fruit is not only loaded with vitamin A but also vitamin C.

One cup of sliced ​​cantaloupe contains 17mg of vitamin C, which is about 19% of the recommended daily intake for adults.

Kiwi fruit

One medium kiwi contains 56mg of vitamin C, which is 62% of the daily value.

A 2021 study found that kiwis may inhibit platelets. This could reduce the risk of blood clots and stroke.

Above all, adding kiwi to your daily diet will help boost your immune system.

Orange

Like other citrus fruits, oranges are a rich source of vitamin C. Oranges are popular because they are delicious and nutritious. Oranges make up a significant portion of the vitamin C in the diet.

One medium-sized tangerine contains about 24mg of vitamin C, or 27% of the daily requirement.

It should be noted that when eating fruits rich in vitamin C, they should be eaten fresh. Vitamin C is easily destroyed by heat, light and long-term storage.

You should eat fruits rich in vitamin C throughout the day instead of eating a lot at once. In addition, you should eat green vegetables and other fruits to add more fiber and micronutrients.

You should not eat fruits rich in vitamin C when hungry because they are acidic and can easily cause heartburn and irritate the stomach lining.
