Papaya

Papayas make a fantastic morning addition, whether in a smoothie with coconut milk or mixed into yogurt. Alternatively, chop it up and serve it as a side dish. This tropical delicacy is packed in fiber, carotenoids (antioxidants), and vitamins A and C.

Vitamin C can aid in the absorption of non-heme iron, which is abundant in plant-based meals. It can also aid to strengthen your immune system. However, because it is a water-soluble vitamin, it is not easily stored in your body. To restore your stockpiles, you'll need to eat vitamin C-rich meals on a regular basis.
