Turnip facts

Turnips resemble potatoes in texture and appearance but exude a bitter flavor that pairs well with sweet meat like pork. This root vegetable can be found year-round in the produce section but is in season from October through March in most areas. Adding turnips to your diet provides you with a number of vitamins and minerals to benefit your overall health.

Vitamins

One cup of mashed turnips contains about 27 mg of vitamin C, an antioxidant. Most adults should consume between 75 and 90 mg of vitamin C daily to support tissue repair and immunity. Turnips also provide most of the B vitamins, including riboflavin, thiamin, niacin, foliate and pantothenic acid. One cup also has 0.2 mg of the 1.3 mg of vitamin B6 you need daily. The B vitamins help with fat, carbohydrate and protein metabolism; nervous system function; and healthy skin, hair, eyes and liver.
