A single kiwi provides the recommended daily intake of vitamin C
Kiwis have 92.17 milligrams of vitamin C per 100 grams, i.e. nearly twice as much as oranges. "Consuming a single piece provides 116% of the recommended daily amount of vitamin C, so a single kiwi gives you 100% of the vitamin C you need. In addition, kiwi contains remarkable amounts of vitamin K, potassium, folic acid, and fiber," stated Ana Molina Jimenez, a nutritionist dietician at AM Nutricion Integral.
Due to its high level of vitamin C, this fruit is a fantastic food to keep the immune system strong, especially for people who come out of an operation or are convalescing, Molina stressed.
