5 Reasons To Start Eating Your Kiwifruit Whole

1. You Get More Fibre And Vitamins A, C and E

2. The Peel Does Not Contain Harmful Substances

That’s right, the kiwifruit skin even combats dreaded bacteria such as E-coli and Staphylococcus, which cause food poisoning.

3. Get A Better Grip Over Those Mood Swings

Potassium is also found in kiwifruit skin, which can help regulate hormones, vascular function (veins and arteries that carry blood) and even blood pressure.

4. Strengthen Your Heart

5. Thankfully, The Fuzz Comes Right Off

Now that we have established that the kiwifruit peel is edible too, simply rub the fuzz off gently with a cloth. If not, take a tub of water mixed in white vinegar, soak the kiwifruits for a few minutes before rinsing thoroughly. Still can’t get past the tiny hairs prickling your throat? Juice it into a smoothie instead, chop finely and toss with meats, or add into a muffin mix.
