Kiwi is famous for vitamin C, often compared to oranges. What makes kiwi special is its surprising combination of magnesium (17 mg per fruit) and a unique enzyme called actinidin. This enzyme promotes faster digestion of proteins, while magnesium takes care of muscle relaxation in the intestines. Studies have even shown that kiwis help with constipation in people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It’s a tiny fruit, but one that Dr Salhab calls “an underestimated hero for gut health.”
