Corn contains Vitamin B1 (thiamine, Folate, Vitamin C, Phosphorus, Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid, Vitamin A (more in the yellow corn), Manganese, and several antioxidants including ferulic acid and phenolics. It depends on what kind of corn and how it is prepared, but for the most part corn offers carbohydrates, potassium, protein, and fiber.

Corn also provides many vitamins, such as B1, B5, vitamin C, and other nutrients including folate, phosporous, and manganese.
