DOGWOOD (CORNEL)

 

     Dogwood fruits (Cornus mas) are characterized by an exceptional concentration of ascorbic acid (88.6% of the Daily Value [DV] per 100 g) and contain a significant concentration of folate (folic acid) (12.5%). The mineral profile includes a substantial fraction of macro- and microelements: boron (85.1% DV per 100 g), rubidium (82.0%), manganese (27.7%), iron (27.3%), molybdenum (21.4%), potassium (14.5%), silicon (13.3%), and cobalt (10.0%).

 

     Cornel fruits are distinguished by a relatively high concentration of total phytosterols (18.7% DV) and mono- and disaccharides (18.0%), within which glucose serves as the primary sugar (14.4% DV). The nutritional matrix also includes pectic substances (13.0%). Sucrose is absent from the composition, while minor quantities of starch (0.1 g per 100 g) are present.

 

     The total purine base content per 100 g constitutes 6.0% of the daily allowance.
Calorie content per 100 g: 40 kcal
Water per 100 g: 85.0 g
Ash per 100 g: 0.8 g
