How fans reacted to Jenna Ortega eating a kiwi
Shortly after the video of Jenna Ortega eating a kiwi with the skin on was uploaded, it became the talk of the town. While some fans expressed confusion, others shared hilarious reactions.
Here are some responses from fans across the world:
Is it healthy to eat kiwi with skin?
Ever since Jenna Ortega’s way of eating kiwi has gone viral, people have been wondering if it is healthy to do so. The general public is accustomed to getting rid of the peel or skin of fruits, including kiwi. But, is it actually beneficial or not?
Kiwi skin is edible and rich in fiber and a number of vitamins. The following are a few potential advantages of eating kiwi with the skin:
Fiber: Dietary fiber, which can improve digestion and control bowel motions, is present in kiwi skin.
Nutrition: Compared to the flesh, the kiwi skin has a higher concentration of specific nutrients such as vitamin C, vitamin E, and folate. Eating the skin can provide you with access to these additional nutrients.
Antioxidants: Flavonoids and polyphenols, which are found in kiwi skin, can help shield your cells from oxidative damage.
Texture and flavor: Some people like the kiwi skin’s texture, which can provide quite a tanginess to its sweetness.
Things to keep in mind when eating kiwi skin
However, there are certain things to keep in mind, rather than blindly hoping to copy Jenna Ortega’s eating habits:
Pesticides: If you are worried about pesticide residues, it is best to carefully wash the kiwi or buy organic kiwis, which are less likely to have any residue of pesticides on the skin.
Allergies: Similar to how some people can be allergic to meat, some people can be allergic to kiwi skin. It is advised to avoid eating the skin if you have any known allergies or unpleasant reactions.
Gastrointestinal sensitivity: The fuzz on kiwi skin may irritate those with sensitive gastrointestinal systems. When eating the skin, some people may feel minor discomfort or irritability in their mouth or throat. Consider peeling the kiwi if you have a sensitive digestive tract to reduce potential pain.
Eating kiwi skin is typically safe for most individuals, despite some potential risks like allergies and pesticide residue. It's always a good idea to seek personalized guidance from a healthcare provider if you have any questions or particular dietary concerns.
