Turnip

ByОлена Коновалова
TURNIP
     Turnip (Brassica napus var. napobrassica) exhibits a less concentrated vitamin and mineral profile relative to other root vegetables, such as kohlrabi, carrot, radish, black radish, and beetroot. It is characterized by a relatively high concentration of silicon (303.0% of the Daily Value [DV] per 100 g), vanadium (100.0%), boron (70.0%), cobalt (20.0%), rubidium (11.0%), molybdenum (10.0%), calcium (10.0%), and potassium (10.0%), alongside ascorbic acid (22.0%). The nutritional profile is further distinguished by its total phytosterol content (12.7% DV) and mono- and disaccharides (12.2%). It contains sucrose (ranging from 0.5–3.0 g per 100 g depending on the cultivar) and starch (0.3 g per 100 g).
     The total purine base content per 100 g constitutes 3.3% of the daily allowance.
Caloric content per 100 g: 32 kcal
Water in 100 g: 89.5 g
Ash from 100 g: 0.7 g
