Kiwi Fruit Health Benefits : This Fruit Is Rich In Vitamin C

No other fruit concentrates the nutrients as much as the kiwi, it has the highest nutritional density. This record is mainly due to its very high vitamin C content: it contains 80 mg / 100 g, exactly our needs. One kiwi brings more than 3 oranges!



FULL OF VITAMIN C

The main asset of the kiwi is its green pulp, full of vitamin C! It is present in large quantities (more than in citrus fruit), since 100 g of kiwi contains just over 90 mg, or almost 100% of the recommended nutritional intake: with a single fruit, it is almost plenty of vitamin C, this precious antioxidant vitamin that fights against infections (especially respiratory), participates in the processes of energy production and removes fatigue and aging. The rate of this vitamin remains fairly stable over time because its skin is dam against the oxygen of the air. 

As for vitamins, its tiny black seeds also contain vitamin E, a fact very rare in plants, with the exception of oilseeds and avocado. Vitamin C is present in several forms, one of them has even been discovered very recently, it is contained almost exclusively in the skin of the fruit. Finally, it is recommended to athletes, because it is rich in sugars but not too much, tonic and quenching, and to those who monitor their weight, because satiating without being too caloric.

A PROTECTIVE FRUIT OF THE HEART

The combination of its fibers and its polyphenols has a beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system (at a rate of two or three fruits per day), in particular by reducing 18% platelet aggregation, responsible for training blood clots and therefore thrombosis, and decreasing by 15% their triglyceride levels.  More recently, the kiwifruit has also shown a surprisingly protective effect on DNA: a team of researchers has thus submitted the DNA of volunteers, whose diet was controlled, to a destructive agent - peroxide - and found that Kiwi eaters were self-repairing, with a lasting effect for at least 24 hours. The fruit could become a new way of fighting cancer, but also lifestyle-related diseases.

GOOD FOR DIGESTION

The kiwi can help you digest: New Zealand researchers have shown in a study published in 2013 that it contained an enzyme, actinidine, which promotes and accelerates the digestion of animal protein from meat, fish. and dairy products. The kiwi relieves not only the painful effects of heavy digestion but also speeds up gastric emptying and reduces the discomfort of the belly too full and tense. On a daily basis, it could also be an effective ally against constipation:  "A group of patients over 60 with recurrent constipation, consuming two to three kiwis per day has markedly improved the problem, to the point that doctors can recommend it as a 100% natural treatment".
