The main nutritional feature of kiwifruit is its exceptional vitamin C content, which is even higher than that of oranges and lemons. In addition to vitamin C, kiwifruit is packed with many other healthy nutrients, including vitamin A and E, folate, potassium, copper, iron and magnesium, as well as calcium and phosphorous. It contains a relatively high amount of both soluble and insoluble fiber, as well.
Since the kiwi tree is highly resistant to parasites, the kiwifruits sold on the market are usually devoid of contamination from pesticides and other similar substances.
