FOOD & BEVERAGES: VITAMIN C (ASCORBIC ACID)

If you want to meet your RDA of vitamin C consider the following: A 1/2 cup of red pepper and one medium papaya have the same vitamin C content (95 mg). That's more vitamin C than you'll get from a 200-ml glass of orange juice (78 mg), 100 grams of strawberries (77 mg) and one kiwi (35 mg). However, the prize for highest vitamin C content goes to the guava. One medium guava has 165 mg of vitamin C. [Source: http://ohioline.osu.edu/hyg-fact/5000/5552.html, et al]
