The king of fruits, kiwi, is not suitable for everyone.

Kiwifruit is aromatic, nutritious, and known as the "king of fruits," making it a favorite among consumers. Two kiwifruits provide one-third of the daily required nutrients, making them the most nutrient-rich and comprehensive of all fruits. However, the "king of fruits" kiwifruit is not suitable for everyone.

Regular consumption of kiwifruit is not only beneficial for health but also has unexpected effects on whitening, beauty, and weight loss, especially favored by women. At the same time, kiwifruit is considered cooling in nature, so some people should avoid it.

Kiwifruit is a low-calorie, low-fat food rich in dietary fiber, with each kiwifruit containing only 45 calories. One-third of the fiber it contains is pectin, which can moisten the intestines and promote bowel movements, quickly clearing harmful metabolic waste from the body, effectively preventing and treating constipation and hemorrhoids.

An extremely high content of Vitamin C is a major characteristic of kiwifruit, several to even tens of times higher than in fruits like citrus and apples. The reason kiwifruit can whiten the skin and remove spots is that its Vitamin C can effectively inhibit the oxidation of dopaquinone in the skin, converting dark-colored oxidized pigments into reduced light-colored pigments, interfering with melanin formation, preventing pigment deposition, and thus keeping the skin fair and clear. Therefore, beauty-conscious expectant mothers can eat more kiwifruit in moderation, so they don't have to worry about their fair faces being "invaded" by chloasma during pregnancy.

Who should avoid eating kiwifruit? Although kiwifruit is good, it is not suitable for everyone. Because kiwifruit is cooling in nature, people with a weak spleen and stomach should consume it with caution. Those with chronic diarrhea and frequent urination should not eat it, and patients with excessive menstrual bleeding and threatened abortion should also avoid it. A survey in the UK showed that some children who eat too much kiwifruit can have severe allergic reactions, even leading to collapse. However, there have been no reported deaths from eating kiwifruit. It is recommended that parents press fresh kiwifruit into juice for children to eat, which is safer than feeding it to them in slices.
