Five Best Foods to Eat for More Vitamin E

Sunflower Seeds

Apart from being a delicious snack option, sunflower seeds are also incredibly nutritious and versatile. You can add them to your salad bowls, put them on top of Greek yogurt or eat them straight up! They contain up to 35 milligrams of vitamin E in a 100g serving. In addition, these seeds also have a significant amount of fiber, selenium, vitamin B1, copper and magnesium that are great for overall health.

Almonds

A 100g serving of almonds contains over 25g of vitamin E, making it second on the list of foods having the highest amounts of this vitamin. Plus, these crunchy and delicious nuts are also an amazing snack option. They provide a quick energy fix packing in a lot of protein and fiber too.  Almond butter and almond milk are other great ways to get in your daily vitamin E.

Asparagus

Asparagus is known for its high antioxidant content, but that's not all! It has been found to be a significant source of vitamin E too. It also has several other micronutrients such as vitamin C, zinc, selenium, magnesium and beta carotene. A cup of raw asparagus can provide you with 18% of your recommended daily vitamin E. Regular consumption of this veggie can aid in digestion, regulate blood sugar levels and protect your body from the effects of free radicals too. Sneak asparagus into your pasta and stir fries and take your healthy, home cooked meals up a notch.
