Can kiwifruit lose weight

Kiwi fruit can be used as an auxiliary food for weight loss, but relying solely on kiwifruit cannot achieve significant weight loss effects. Kiwi fruit is rich in dietary fiber, vitamin C, and low calorie properties, which can help control weight, but it needs to be combined with a reasonable diet and exercise. Kiwi contains only 61 calories per 100 grams and has a high dietary fiber content, which can enhance satiety and delay gastric emptying time, reducing the intake of other high calorie foods. The kiwifruit protease it contains can promote protein breakdown and help with digestion and absorption. Vitamin C participates in carnitine synthesis and contributes to fat metabolism. However, it should be noted that the daily intake should not exceed 2-3, as excessive intake may cause irritation to the oral mucosa or gastrointestinal discomfort.

Some people may experience acid reflux symptoms when consuming kiwifruit on an empty stomach, and it is recommended to consume it after meals. People who are allergic to kiwifruit may experience reactions such as numbness in the mouth and swelling in the throat, and should avoid consumption. Patients with combined chronic kidney disease need to control their intake, as their high potassium content may affect electrolyte balance. Patients with diabetes need to include the total amount of fruit every day to avoid blood sugar fluctuations.

It is recommended to include kiwifruit in a balanced diet plan, with 150-300 grams of vegetables, 50-100 grams of high-quality protein, and moderate whole grains per day. Engage in 150 minutes of moderate intensity exercise such as brisk walking, swimming, etc. every week. Long term weight management requires establishing a calorie deficit through dietary adjustments, regular sleep patterns, and continuous exercise. If there is no sustained change in weight or accompanied by endocrine abnormalities, timely medical examination should be sought to identify pathological obesity factors such as polycystic ovary syndrome and hypothyroidism.
