All about kiwi

Kiwi is one of the most popular tropical fruits. The taste of its pulp is very pleasant, with a slight sourness, a little reminiscent of strawberries.

Kiwi comes from China, which gave it its first name - “Chinese gooseberry”. Later, kiwi was brought to New Zealand, where it began to be grown and cultivated, and for many years this country has been the largest exporter of these juicy tropical fruits. Over time, for better trade in New Zealand, the “Chinese gooseberry” was given another, more sonorous name - “kiwi”, in honor of an unusual wingless bird, the feathers of which are very reminiscent of the brown, stiff hairs of the fruit.

Kiwi fruits have been used for many years in traditional Chinese medicine to improve stomach function, prevent the formation of kidney stones, improve well-being, relieve increased nervous excitability, increase physical performance and prevent the premature appearance of gray hair.

Kiwis are very healthy, they are rich in vitamins and minerals. Of the vitamins, this fruit contains A, D, C (2 times more than in an orange; one fresh fruit more than covers the daily requirement of an adult), B2, B3, B6, E, beta-carotene and folic acid, from mineral elements - potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, etc. Kiwi pulp also contains fruit acids, pectins and enzymes. All this makes them very useful.

This furry tropical fruit is so healing, so don’t run to the pharmacy, but go to the market, eat kiwi and you will be healthy!
