Kiwi Fruit
Kiwi Fruit
They are in season in Australia during winter and are high in Vitamin C so great to snack on in the colder months while helping to boost your immune system. They can help reduce cholesterol and improve circulation! Actually native to China and also called Chinese Gooseberry (not New Zealand although they are one of the major countries that produce kiwi fruit and is where their name now comes from). They have a low to moderate glycemic index which provides longer lasting energy. Enjoy these snacks on their own, in fruit salads or in salsas with fish or chicken. Avoid with dairy as the enzyme in Kiwi fruit can cause curdling.
