摘要：
Kiwifruit are enjoyable to eat. They are exceptionally good sources of vitamin C and they are also excellent sources of potassium and folate and possibly of vitamin E and vitamin K. They contain a most effective laxative. There is very little if any loss of nutritional quality during long-term storage and ripening. Kiwifruit may be particularly beneficial to elderly consumers. However, the risks from the allergic response to kiwifruit should not be underestimated.
