Health boosts from kiwi fruit!

A study at Rutgers University claimed that, ounce for ounce, kiwi is the world's most nutrient dense fruit.

A study in Italy showed that children suffered less from coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath at night when they consumed 5 to 7 servings of citrus or kiwi weekly.  People who suffer from asthma had impressive results from consuming kiwi, even if only eating kiwi 1 or 2 times a week.  Kiwi fruit can also help to reduce the risk of heart disease by reducing triglycerides and lowering the chance of forming blood clots.  A study concluded that kiwi can heal the body from damage to the DNA which also helps protect against cancer.  1 serving of kiwi contains 230% of the daily value for vitamin C which increases iron absorption, helps heal wounds,  boosts the immune system, and removes toxins from the blood stream.  Kiwi also contains zinc, which is good for the health of you teeth, hair, nails, and skin.
