Impact of Kiwi on Skin Health

This study is crazy. They found that eating two kiwis a

day for eight weeks increased skin

density by forty-eight percent. You'll see it right

there. You'll see-- Look, look, before they ate the kiwi,

the skin density was, eh, average.

They ate the kiwi fruit, and you can see it, it's visibly

much thicker under the microscope.

And it also increased skin cell regeneration

by thirty percent. You'll see here before, before they ate

the kiwi, there was not that many, uh,

Ki-67 markers it's called, which is an indicator

of epidermal cell proliferation.

There wasn't much before. Then they ate the kiwi for eight weeks,

and you'll see all of those markers the-- in

this slide here indicate, uh, rapidly

proliferating, uh, epidermal cells, and so it

was regenerating at a faster rate.

And this is because the researchers found that the dietary

vitamin C from the kiwis, it was about two hundred and fifty

milligrams from two kiwis, that b-- vitamin C goes straight

from the bloodstream into the skin, right?

It gets right in there, and that appears to be the mechanism behind

how this

happens
