Kiwi scores higher than citrus in vitamin C intake

According to HLN, a kiwi contains more vitamin C than oranges and other citrus fruits. The fruit would provide a longer boost of this vitamin.

The exact amount of vitamin C and the duration of the effects are not specified by HLN. However, it is stated that the kiwi is a better choice for those looking for a longer supply of vitamin C.

It is not clear which study or source HLN is basing this on. Nevertheless, it could be an interesting point for those who want to optimize their vitamin C intake.

Vitamin C plays a role in the immune system and the skin. It is often associated with citrus fruits, but according to HLN, kiwis are a better option.
