In 100 g fresh-cut apples the vitamin E content increased more than 100 times, and calcium and zinc contents increased about 20 times compared with unfortified apples. In this respect, the introduction of vitamin E to fruit and vegetables, particularly as they typically contain its slight amounts, seems to be an interesting alternative to supplements. During the enrichment of fresh-cut apples with vitamin E as well as calcium and zinc Park et al. (2005) obtained a 100-fold greater content of vitamin E per 100 g of apples and approximately 20-fold higher contents of calcium and zinc in apples in comparison to apples before impregnation.
