Our Verdict

When comparing artichoke to celeriac, we picked the artichoke.

Why?

It wasn’t close:

In terms of macros, artichokes have nearly 3x the fiber for just slightly more carbs, and more than 2x the protein, scoring an easy first-round win.

In the category of vitamins, artichokes have more of vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B7, B9, and C, while celeriac has more of vitamins B6, E, and K, yielding a 7:3 victory to artichokes here.

Looking at minerals, artichokes have more copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, potassium, and zinc, while celeriac has more phosphorus and selenium, meaning a convincing 6:2 win for artichokes in this round.

In other considerations, artichokes also have a much higher polyphenol content, so that’s another point in their favor.

Adding up the sections makes for an overwhelming overall win for artichoke, but by all means do enjoy either or both, as diversity is best!
