Next, let's take a look at the Vitamin density. These values are shown in units of percent of recommended daily intake. And since we're showing 200 calories worth, this means anything above 10% is good.

Choline = 26%

Broccoli have significantly more Vitamins E, C, K than green beans. Broccoli are a good source of Vitamin A, Vitamin E, Niacin, Magnesium, Zinc. Broccoli are a great source of Thiamin, Riboflavin, Pantothenic Acid, Vitamin B6, Potassium, Calcium, Phosphorus, Iron. Broccoli are an excellent source of Vitamin K, Vitamin C. Green beans are a good source of Vitamin A, Vitamin E, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Potassium, Magnesium, Phosphorus. Green beans are a great source of Vitamin C, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Calcium, Iron. Green beans are an excellent source of Vitamin K.

And here we see the B-vitamins: B1 (Thiamin), B2 (Riboflavin), B3 (Niacin), B5 (Pantothenic Acid), B6 (Pyridoxine)
