Researchers found that participants who consumed two kiwis daily experienced mood improvements in as little as four days, with peak benefits occurring around two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The study, conducted by scientists at the University of Otago, New Zealand, compared the effects of kiwi fruit consumption to vitamin C supplements and a placebo. Interestingly, the whole fruit appeared to have a stronger impact on mood than supplements alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the research shows promise, it&#8217;s important to note that the study had limitations, including its observational nature and reliance on self-reporting. Nevertheless, these findings highlight the potential mental health benefits of incorporating vitamin C-rich foods like kiwi into one&#8217;s diet.For more details on this intriguing research, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/kiwi-fruit-may-improve-mental-health\">Medical News Today.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A recent study published in the British Journal of Nutrition suggests that eating kiwi fruit could significantly improve mood and&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2978,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2977","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nutrition"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alternativemedicine.today\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2977","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alternativemedicine.today\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alternativemedicine.today\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alternativemedicine.today\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alternativemedicine.today\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2977"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/alternativemedicine.today\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2977\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2979,"href":"https:\/\/alternativemedicine.today\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2977\/revisions\/2979"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alternativemedicine.today\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2978"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alternativemedicine.today\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2977"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alternativemedicine.today\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2977"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alternativemedicine.today\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2977"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
