Was reading an article on that Kiwi reduces blood pressure. But crazy doctor cautioned of consuming 3 kiwies a days saying that it would be too much. Unbelievable how dumb academic/doctors can be. This guys seems lost his mind. Seems that he haas never been in fruit isle.
Dr. Nehal Mehta, a preventive cardiologist at the Hospital of the University ofPennsylvania in Philadelphia. "They are not easy to find or one of those fruits that people readily grab." Moderation is the key with kiwis or any food, he said. "Three kiwis a day or 21 kiwis a week does not seem like moderation, and I would caution against eating that much," he said

jjjjajajaja! 3 only in the first day...then 6,9,12...all than your body wants...is only a doctor!
They are trained to treat disease with drugs, does anyone argue this?
Dude needs to read Dr Esselstyn's book if he is serious about being a preventive cardiologist. ;)
Wow! Glad he didn't see me at the hotel the other day. My dh & I went down to the breakfast - so I brought 8 kiwis and I cut them in half and scooped out the yumminess and enjoyed then because the hotel actually served ripe spotted bananas I ate three of those. Yes, I got all kinds of looks from those who were eating the the danishes, the bacon, the muffins, . . . the junk! I had no idea I just just overeaten my kiwi quota. What would we do without these wise drs??
Three kiwis a day, wow that's extreme. Oh, but drink three glasses of milk a day, that'll make you healthy.
How is nutrition this misunderstood?
LOL, I eat 30 a day on average at the moment plus 1.5 litres of orange juice and a pineapple or so :-)
Kiwifruits rock!
I have to add: I live in New Zealand, we grow them like there's no tomorrow and I can get them (the golden ones, which are so much nicer than the green ones) for between US$1.50 and US1.80 per kg (2.2lbs). So I eat as many as I can while they're in season :-)
I say bring on the kiwi's!!!!!
If you trust a doctor to give you food advice, you deserve the results you get. American medical schools STILL do not have required courses in nutrition. Now figure that one out! Ha!
ah ah ah that MUST be a joke, come on, he just said that to crack us fruitarians up !!
he certainly made me laugh out loud.
"3 kiwis a day = not moderation!" ah ah ah ah ha ah ah ah
