I may not be willing to share my wealth but I will share my (present) health.
Actually it's a dietary regimen that I've maintained from the time I was a kid growing up with no running water until 1968 etc etc etc. Aside from a number of motorcycle accidents and a bad experience with a nail in my foot that was coated in chicken shit 50 years ago, and 3 bouts with kidney stones, I am in good health at 64 years of age of which I firmly believe is directly related to dietary consistency as in the same thing every day of every week and on.
Since the days of JFK and the October Crisis my parents ritually started our mornings with fresh or preserved fruit, grapefruit being priority in the winter months, if we couldn't get to the market in town because of storm closures then we always had preserved strawberries and blueberries. A MEANINGLESS POINT OF INTEREST...to this day I have in storage 48 x 2 cup mason jars of blueberry juice.
Traditionally, the general rule of thumb is to eat anything that grows above ground in the non winter months and everything that grows below ground is eaten during the winter months ie tubers.
Here's the mechanical breakdown of my intake with the primary focus on the liver. During the winter months, every morning before injesting any protein I drink fresh squeezed grapefruit, if not available I'll go for blueberry juice or canned peaches, half hour after it's eggs and meat but it's imperative the juice goes into an empty stomach to ensure maximum vitamin C absorption. NEXT...once a week juice up a bundle of carrots, a stalk of celery, 3 large beets and an apple as a sweetener, this will give three servings of one large glass each, it's important that the juice be drank warm and one hour prior to protein intake.
I was always told that only queers drink blueberry juice. haha I kid i kid. Seriously, it sounds like a good regiment. I eat a lot of celery. I get most of my C, D, Zinc and elderberries from adult gummies. Shaloms💎✡️
If you're after vitamin C, wild rose hips have an exceptional amount. Once the hips have the seeds removed, and have been cleaned, they can be added to hot water for an okay tasting tea that is rich in vitamin C. You shouldn't boil the rose hips as it will destroy a good chunk of the vitamin C. Rose hips can also be turned into jams for long term storage. Assuming methods are used that minimize heat, this can mean you will have a vitamin C rich jam for winter months.
