The Most Nutritious (and Delicious) Fruits

Historically used to prevent scurvy, citrus fruits are known for their high levels of vitamin C. Lemons also contain vitamins A and B6, as well as other essential minerals, such as thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and folic acid.
This sour fruit is high in antioxidants called flavonoids that protect cells from oxidative damage. Research suggests that these compounds may help fight diabetes and prevent cardiovascular disease.
