The body cannot store vitamin C so the meals each day should include several sources of this vitamin.

Tomatoes Or tomato juice contain vitamin C, but not as much as citrus fruit. Raw cabbage is a low-cost source of the vitamin, as is raw turnip. Cooked vegetables lose some of the vitamin, depending on how the foods are cooked, as heat and exposure to air destroy the vitamin.
