Green peas, frozen

Lots of vitamin K1.
Nothing to watch for most people.
On warfarin? Keep your vitamin K steady. Worth knowing for some people: uncooked frozen vegetables.

How we counted this
What one serving (85 g) gives you.
Your body needs enough of each of these. Past enough, more doesn’t help. Amounts are what the food databases list, not what your body absorbs, unless a row says it was measured.
The words: “A lot” means one serving gives 20% or more of Health Canada’s daily amount, “Some” 10% to 19%, “A little” 2% to 9%, “Almost none” under 2%. Strongest word first; within a word, protein and fibre lead, then the biggest share. ?
A milligram (mg) is a thousandth of a gram, and a microgram (µg) a thousandth of a milligram: 1,000 µg make 1 mg.

Vitamin K1

23.7 µg in one serving: 20% of the 120 µg a day men need, 26% of the 90 µg women need. The word follows the smaller share, which is the share of the higher amount. ?

Watch out
How we counted this
Nothing here reaches a limit at ordinary amounts.
For some people
Cook frozen peas per the package directions; do not just thaw and eat them (Health Canada). Higher-risk groups per PHAC: weakened immune systems, adults 60 and over, pregnant people and newborns
With warfarin: keep vitamin K intake consistent (label), not avoid.
Learn more
Eat a steady amount, not none. This line goes on every food whose serving gives 10% or more of the daily vitamin K; a few foods below that carry it too, where a source names them. One serving here has about 24 µg of vitamin K1.
Worth knowing
No limit applies, so none is rated.
Sugar
4.3 g of sugar in a 85 g serving, natural and added together.
Learn more
Shown, not rated. The food tables we read give total sugar, and few give added sugar, so the site can’t yet tell sugar added in making a food from the sugar in fruit or milk.
Better options
How we counted this
“Better” here always means better at something the row names: more of one nutrient, more nutrients per serving, or the goal you pick. It never means better in every way.
Every amount below is for the same weight, 85 g, the size of one serving of this food, so a swap compares like with like. A serving of another food can be bigger or smaller.
A food is listed only if it gives clearly more: at least a fifth more than this food, and at least 10% of the daily amount more.
More of what it’s good for
More vitamin K1
Kale, cooked355 µg in 85 g (this food: 23.7 µg)
Turnip greens, cooked312 µg in 85 g (this food: 23.7 µg)
Amounts as listed, not adjusted for how much gets in.
More nutrients per serving, counted together
The other vegetables we’ve checked with more nutrients per serving than this one, counting at most 100 kcal. One score ranks them all, so the same few often lead.
- Turnip greens, cooked
- More vitamin K1 (312 µg vs 23.7 µg)
- More vitamin A (324 µg vs 87.6 µg)
- More folate (100 µg vs 45.1 µg)
- Less thiamin (0.04 mg vs 0.22 mg)
- Kale, cooked
- More vitamin K1 (355 µg vs 23.7 µg)
- More omega-3: ALA (286 mg vs 28.1 mg)
- More calcium (128 mg vs 18.7 mg)
- Less thiamin (0.05 mg vs 0.22 mg)
Brussels sprouts, cooked- More vitamin K1 (119 µg vs 23.7 µg)
- More vitamin C (52.7 mg vs 15.3 mg)
- Less thiamin (0.09 mg vs 0.22 mg)
Where the calcium card measured that less calcium gets in than from milk, calcium counts for less; everything else is as listed.
Your goal
Your goal changes only this list, not what the food gives you or what to watch.
Losing weight: fewer calories, and more nutrients, protein and fibre for each calorie.
Asparagus, cooked- 19 kcal in 85 g (this food: 65)
- More folate (127 µg vs 45.1 µg)
- More vitamin K1 (43 µg vs 23.7 µg)
- Turnip greens, cooked
- 17 kcal in 85 g (this food: 65)
- More vitamin K1 (312 µg vs 23.7 µg)
- More vitamin A (324 µg vs 87.6 µg)
- More folate (100 µg vs 45.1 µg)
- Less thiamin (0.04 mg vs 0.22 mg)
Broccoli, cooked- 24 kcal in 85 g (this food: 65)
- More vitamin K1 (74.9 µg vs 23.7 µg)
- More vitamin C (34.1 mg vs 15.3 mg)
- Less thiamin (0.05 mg vs 0.22 mg)
Building muscle: more protein and more calories, per 100 g. In a typical diet most protein comes from other foods; among vegetables, these help most.
Edamame, cooked would lead this list, but it’s left out (not tested for contaminants yet).
Why some foods aren’t suggested
Left out: Mustard greens, cooked (not tested for contaminants yet).
Left out: Spinach, cooked (Cadmium: go easy · lots of oxalate, more than its own calcium can bind).

The numbers
Open every value
Name in the database: Peas, green, frozen, unprepared
How the serving was set: Reference amount: nearest row. 85 g (Health Canada V.1, vegetables without sauce: 85 g fresh or frozen). K.2 (125 mL) also fits peas.
Listed nutrients, per 100 g
For each nutrient, the value this page uses is marked “used”. A row marked “second database” is another database’s figure for a matching food, kept so you can see how far databases disagree (they can differ in the samples analysed, lab methods and rounding). Its own cells are worked out from it, but none of the page’s words or scores are.

Body map 2026-10-25.1: each nutrient’s job comes from an agency fact sheet, linked beside it under Good for.
The plain words: “a lot” means one serving (100 g when the food has no serving size) gives at least 20% of the daily amount (the reference intake), “some” at least 10%, “a little” at least 2% (the cut-offs are ours, one set for every page: 20% and 10% are borrowed from the US labelling terms “high” and “good source” and applied to Health Canada’s daily amount, whereas Health Canada’s own shopper rule says 15%; provisional: they may change in a later method version). The daily amount is Health Canada’s Dietary Reference Intake for adults 19–30; where men and women need different amounts we use the higher one (protein: 56 g for men, 46 g for women). The percentage printed under each nutrient is the printed amount as a share of that daily amount, rounded to the nearest whole number, and the word is read from that percentage, so the amount, the percentage and the word always agree. Calcium with a measured absorption is scaled by how well it gets in compared with milk.
The scale: “Nothing to watch” means a serving a day stays under the limit at ordinary amounts; “Go easy” means a serving a day can push past the limit for adults who already take in the most, or fewer than 2 servings reach it; “Limit it” means once a week or less. The dataset’s own rating is under “How we got this”. Provisional: the scale may change in a later method version.
Measured absorption under Good for: grade-A studies in adults that tested this preparation of this food, as a share of the listed amount (the share digested, for protein), quoted once each source has passed our evidence check; animal studies and other variants stay in the table above. Provisional: this screen may change in a later method version.
