Supersprouts for vitamin boost

Give yourself a vitamin boost in the run-up to Christmas with supersprouts.

The Super C Sprout - nicknamed the Sproutsuma - is so packed with vitamin C that it contains seven times more than a satsuma.

The sprouts, grown in Gloucestershire exclusively for Marks & Spencer, are so nutritious that only two need to be eaten to obtain a full day's allowance of the vitamin.

"The Super C is naturally sweeter so we hope customers will enjoy it even more than normal sprouts and give themselves a vitamin boost in the run-up to Christmas," the Daily Express quoted Dr Simon Coupe, agronomist for the store, as saying.
