Lovely Vegetables Work For You!


This source is not for meat, fruit, (although bananas are included for comparative purposes), grains, and other foods. It is all about the wonders of vegetables, and 3 seeds! These pages should be able to aid you in choosing the foods you would like to eat, and to let you know how your favorite foods stack up!

There are others I wish were listed, but the source I got these from years ago only listed these, and it is, I have to admit, a pretty good cross section!

Unfortunately, I've had these numbers for about 15 years, copied into a book for my own use, and I never wrote in it the serving sizes!

However, what I do know is that all things are equal, so whether it's a tablespoon, or 1/2 cup, if the # is higher, then that food has more of whatever-it-is! It's interesting to see, as an example, that watermelon and avocadoes have more potassium in them than bananas, and that kelp and sunflower seeds are more iron filled than some legumes!

I'm not an expert, and there could have been a flaw in my original source, but as far as I know, this is completely accurate! In any case, enjoy; and healthy, happy eating! :)
