The importance of good digestive health
When the digestive system is in optimal working order we feel better, because we're able to:
- process food matter and absorb nutrients from food efficiently
- fight off potentially harmful substances and bacteria
- eliminate waste products efficiently and effortlessly
Kiwifruit and digestive health
Scientific studies have demonstrated how regular consumption of ZESPRI™ GREEN and GOLD Kiwifruit contributes to good digestive health. This includes:
- prevention of bloating
- improved bowel habits
- positive alterations in intestinal enzymes, which may help in natural resistance to illness
- the growth of beneficial bacteria and inhibition of harmful bacteria
Kiwifruit are therefore a naturally palatable and gentle way of improving many aspects of bowel function.
