According to the research report of the United States Department of Agriculture, kiwifruit ranks first in the comprehensive antioxidant index of fruits, second only to small fruits such as Rosa roxburghii and blueberry, and far stronger than daily fruits such as apples, pears, watermelons, and oranges.

Not only that, kiwi fruit can stabilize mood, lower cholesterol, help digestion and prevent constipation, but also has the effects of quenching thirst, inducing diuresis and protecting the heart.

Generally, each one is about 100g, the same size and the more uniform. If weight more than 130g of this very large fruit, generally do not choose, because this fruit is generally used chemicals. When buying kiwi fruit, you should choose a slightly harder one. After you buy it back, you should find a paper bag and put the kiwi fruit in it. Then you should put two or three apples or pears in it and tie the bag. The next day, the kiwi fruit will become soft and delicious.
Precautions for Eating Kiwi Fruit.
Caution against kiwifruit allergy: kiwifruit is rich in various nutrients, but kiwifruit is cold in nature, and immature kiwifruit has slight toxicity. For some citizens with allergic body constitution, even if they eat ripe kiwi fruit, they will sometimes suffer from allergic symptoms such as numbness of the tongue. In serious cases, they will suffer from edema of the oral mucosa, dyspnea, and even death. Therefore, people with frequent diarrhea and frequent urination should Not eat it. Patients with menorrhagia and threatened abortion should Not eat it, and children should not eat more. Allergic substances mainly exist in the peel. It is suggested to peel the fruit before eating, or cut the fruit and leave it in the air for a while. After the oxidation reaction occurs, its allergenicity will also decrease.
✵Don't drink milk immediately after eating kiwi fruit: because kiwi fruit has high vitamin C content, it is easy to coagulate into lumps with protein in dairy products, which not only affects digestion and absorption but also causes abdominal distension, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Therefore, don't drink milk or eat other dairy products immediately after eating kiwi fruit.
✵Choose hard Kiwi fruit to buy: everyone knows kiwi fruit is the "king of the vitamin C", but imported kiwi fruit often costs several dollars apiece. Although domestic kiwi fruit is cheap, it is either sour or soft. How to eat delicious kiwi fruit? First of all, the nutrition of domestic kiwifruit is no worse than that of imported kiwifruit. Vitamin C in many domestic kiwifruit varieties is even two or three times that of imported kiwifruit. In addition, imported fruits need to be sold for a long distance, and the varieties that are resistant to storage need to be selected and subjected to fresh-keeping treatment. Therefore, it is healthier and safer to eat domestic products. Many people think that domestic kiwifruit is either hard, or some parts are hard, while some parts are soft and rotten or even corrupt. In fact, they do not know how to choose. If you buy domestic kiwi fruit, you must buy kiwi fruit that is hard and has no bruise. Touch the fruit carefully, and it can't be soft at all! Once a small piece of kiwi fruit is bruised and softened, it will become partially ripe and most of it will be sour, even rotten and tasteless, which is very difficult to eat. The selected fruit does not need to be huge, but it must be plump in shape. Put kiwi fruit and ripe apples in a plastic bag, tie tightly and let stand for 3-5 days when the base of the fruit can be cut slightly according to the softness, the kiwi fruit is sweet and sour.
✵If you like kiwi fruit, don't forget to chew the seeds: It should be noted that kiwi fruit seeds are hard to digest if swallowed directly because they are very small and wrapped in a hard shell. It is better to chew the kiwi fruit seeds several times more when eating kiwi fruit seeds and chew them up to facilitate the absorption of nutrients.
✵Kiwi fruit cannot be eaten on an empty stomach: Kiwi fruit is good, but it is not suitable for everyone. Because kiwifruit is cold, people with spleen and stomach deficiency should eat it carefully, but people with frequent diarrhea and frequent urination should not eat it. Eating 1-2 daily can not only meet the needs of the human body but also fully absorb its nutritional constituents. The eating time is 1-3 hours before and after meals, which is more suitable and should not be taken on an empty stomach.
✵People who better eat kiwi fruit
1. Those depressed, often eat barbecue, constipation is suitable for eating kiwi fruit; cancer patients, hypertension patients, coronary heart disease patients, cardiovascular disease patients, anorexia, dyspepsia, aviation, plateau, mine, and other special workers are especially suitable;
2. Those with a loose stool due to spleen deficiency, a cold and wind-cold, malaria, dysentery due to cold and dampness, chronic gastritis, dysmenorrhea, amenorrhea, and infantile diarrhea are not suitable for eating.
3. Those with anorexia, dyspepsia, nausea and vomiting and vexation of heat, jaundice, diabetes, stranguria, hernia, hemorrhoids and other diseases can be eaten by patients.
✵People better avoid Kiwi fruit: Kiwifruit is not allowed to be eaten by patients with normal spleen and stomach deficiency cold, diarrhea loose stool and diabetes: normal spleen and stomach deficiency cold, diarrhea loose stool and diabetes. Kiwifruit is slippery and purgative, and women with threatened abortion and pregnancy should not eat it.
✵Kiwi fruit should not be taken with milk: Kiwi fruit and milk not only affect digestion and absorption but also cause abdominal distension, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Because the vitamin C is easy to coagulate into lumps with proteins in dairy products, it not only affects digestion and absorption but also causes abdominal distension, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Therefore, after eating kiwi fruit rich in the vitamin C, you must not drink milk or eat other dairy products immediately.
✵Kiwi fruit after pickled vegetables: pickled fish is a favorite dish. However, vitamin C has been completely lost in pickled sauerkraut. In addition, sauerkraut also contains more oxalic acid and calcium, which are easy to be absorbed by intestinal tract after being eaten due to high acidity, and are easy to form stones in the urinary system when excreted by the kidney. However, most pickled food contains more nitrite, which forms nitrosamines with amines in the human body, and is an easily carcinogenic substance. Scientists have found that eating foods rich in vitamins can block the synthesis of nitrosamine, a strong carcinogen, and reduce the occurrence of gastric cancer and esophageal cancer. And a kiwi fruit can basically meet the vitamin C needed by the human body in a day.
✵ Children are susceptible to allergy when eating kiwi fruit: A scientific survey in Britain shows that children eating kiwi fruit too much can cause severe allergic reactions and even collapse. This study shows that children under the age of five are most prone to kiwifruit allergy. Of the 300 respondents, 80 were children, of whom 2/3 had adverse reactions when eating kiwi fruit for the first time. Two 4-month-old babies and one 1-year-old baby responded too strongly and had to be hospitalized. Adverse reactions of children to kiwifruit include itching of mouth and throat and tongue swelling. Forty-one of the respondents, 40% of whom were under 5 years old, had severe symptoms of dyspnea and collapse after eating kiwi fruit. However, no deaths caused by kiwifruit consumption have been reported.
