Kiwifruit
June 13th, 2012
The furry fruit that most people forget about and yet it is one of the most nutrient dense fruits. It has twice the vitamin C of an orange, is high in potassium, low in sodium, and a good source of fiber.
The Journal of Medicine reports kiwi juice as having the ability to reduce oxidative stress and stimulate cellular repair. Kiwi also works as a blood thinner, with none of the side effects of aspirin. Also can help asthma by reducing the wheezing . eating 3 or more servings of fruit per day may lower your risk of age-related macular degeneration. Enjoying just a couple of kiwifruit each day may significantly lower your risk for blood clots and reduce the amount of fats (triglycerides) in your blood, therefore helping to protect cardiovascular health.
