General fruit changes color from green (when young) to yellow, orange or red (when ripe). Only a few types of fruits that remain green when ripe. One of them is the kiwi.
The green color is caused by the pigment chlorophyll levels remained unchanged in his maturation process. Foodstuffs generally contain more chlorophyll is a good source of magnesium
Many research results have shown that chlorophyll antimutagenik properties (preventing the spread of cancer-causing genes)
This occurs because the nature of chlorophyll binding reaction can inhibit carcinogen compounds with DNA, and to counteract the reaction of radical life. Verdant also protect the immune system through the ability to reduce reactivity of radical compounds.
One study showed that klorofilin, the substance chlorophyll derivatives, capable of binding Aflatoxin B1 can inhibit the occurrence of liver cancer.
As the quotation compass, the results of research and Wens Benitez (1996) showed that very effectively lower klorofilin superoxide anion (free radical species), higher ability yamg compared with beta-carotene or vitamin C.
Kiwi also contains inositol, which is important in fighting intracellular responses to hormones and neurotransmitters
Some research indicates that inositol supplementation helps lung function in premature infants and adults who experience depression. Kiwi also contains serotonin, a substance that contains the quiet effect.
