I'm not sure if I could give an appropriate reply on this but I'd like to share something with you. It's not a secret, anyway. And if you do have a suggestion, please share it with me. Thanks in advance.
You see, I really am not used to drinking any vitamin c supplement or foods rich in vitamin c. It's very seldom when I eat citrus fruits or drink juice. And personally, I've noticed that whenever I eat calamansi or drink calamansi juice, I tend to develop colds; but this type of colds doesn't last longer than a couple of days. I don't know if I'm right in thinking that this behavior of my body is quite unusual or abnormal.
But despite of this, I'm thankful that I rarely have cough or colds even if I don't have a steady source of vitamin c in my system.
Anyway, I think guava has the most vitamin C of all fruits. There was this one particular incident ages ago when I was almost hospitalized due to eating guavas as I miscalculated that I was going to have my monthly period in a couple of days. I was checked up by a hospital doctor and he told me that guava has more vitamin c than apple and calamansi.
Aside from these fruits, I believe that kiwi, tamarind, grapes, santol, and mangoes are rich in vitamin c, too.

I think strawberries, oranges, limes, lemons and orange juice, cantelope, grapefruit and probably mangoes. I like all of them. If you can not buy the fruit you should get the juice.

Citrus fruits contains vitamin C. But goose berry (Amla)is a very good source of vitamin C.
