Are you incorporating a kiwi into your daily diet? While it may appear to be just another fruit among your groceries, this small green gem has a remarkable effect on your health. Dr. Kunal Sood frequently shares insights on health and wellness with his Instagram followers. In a post dated April 5, he discusses the benefits of making kiwi a daily staple.

What happens when you eat kiwi every day

In his post, Dr. Sood elucidates the scientific rationale for including this fuzzy fruit in your diet regularly. He states, “Kiwi has been shown to not only repair DNA damage but also stimulate DNA repair, and there is research to support it.”

He elaborates that the fruit's efficacy is largely due to its high antioxidant levels, particularly vitamins C and E, which help mitigate DNA damage caused by oxidative stress. Moreover, Dr. Sood emphasizes that kiwi further enhances health by actively promoting base excision repair, a vital cellular mechanism that preserves genetic integrity by rectifying DNA damage.

He continues, "By safeguarding our DNA, we are effectively lowering our cancer risk, decelerating the aging process, boosting our immune system, and protecting our brain." According to him, these benefits extend beyond disease prevention, contributing significantly to overall longevity and well-being.

What study reveals

A study published in Advances in Food and Nutrition Research investigated the effects of kiwifruit on DNA integrity. The findings indicated that kiwifruit, abundant in vitamins C and E, can shield cellular DNA from oxidative harm and improve DNA repair processes. This protective capability is linked to the fruit's antioxidant characteristics and its role in stimulating base excision repair mechanisms.

A research article featured in The American Journal of Gastroenterology revealed that the daily intake of two green kiwifruits resulted in notable enhancements in the frequency of bowel movements, the consistency of stools, and overall digestive comfort for individuals suffering from constipation and irritable bowel syndrome characterized by constipation (IBS-C).
