BLACK RADISH
     Similarly to the common radish, black radish (Raphanus sativus L. var. niger) exhibits a relatively low vitamin concentration, with the exception of ascorbic acid (32.0% of the Daily Value [DV] per 100 g). However, it possesses a robust mineral profile, characterized by high levels of: silicon (132.0% DV per 100 g), rubidium (130.0%), vanadium (118.0%), boron (40.0%), cobalt (39.0%), potassium (28.0%), sulfur (24.0%), calcium (23.0%), molybdenum (21.0%), lithium (16.0%), and chlorine (10.0%). It is further distinguished by its total phytosterol content (13.0% DV), as well as mono- and disaccharides (12.8%), with glucose (10.5%) being the predominant carbohydrate fraction, and dietary fiber (11.0%). The composition also includes sucrose (1.86 g per 100 g) and starch (0.3 g per 100 g).
     The total purine base content in 100 g is 3.3% of the daily norm.
Caloric content per 100 g: 36 kcal
Water in 100 g: 88 g
