Kiwi is a beneficial fruit that can help reduce the risk of cancer. It's important to be aware of the recommended daily intake of this fruit, states Dr. Kunal Sood.
What we know
According to the doctor, kiwi not only repairs damaged DNA but also stimulates its regeneration.
He explained that the vitamins C and E in kiwi are antioxidants, while DNA repair occurs due to the fruit's ability to stimulate it.
"This means that for our health, it reduces the risk of cancer, slows down the aging process, strengthens our immune system, and protects the brain," the doctor noted.
Kiwi is also an excellent source of fiber, which helps reduce the risk of constipation.
Since DNA is the repository of genetic information in every living cell, its integrity and stability are crucial for life. However, DNA is exposed to environmental factors, and any damage can lead to mutations and diseases.
The doctor pointed out the connection between DNA damage caused by environmental factors and skin cancer, which can be triggered by excessive UV radiation exposure.
Daily intake
One kiwi a day provides the daily recommended amount of vitamin C, which strengthens the immune system, blood vessels, boosts the body's resistance to infections, and helps it cope with stress. Kiwi contains a lot of magnesium, mineral salts (potassium), and fiber that helps normalize digestion.
Overall, it is a powerful fruit, rich in flavor and nutrients. Despite its small size, it provides a significant portion of the recommended daily intake of many vitamins and minerals. Kiwi is rich in vitamin C, copper, and vitamin K, and contains smaller amounts of many other essential nutrients.
