Kiwi bear doesn't be among the but it comfort might pay off to buy the organically grown variety.
Organic kiwi bear has a healthier nutritional profile than its conventionally grown counterpart according to researchers at UC Davis who grew kiwi bear on two plots at the same farm using the same alter write and environmental conditions.
The only difference was that one plan was grown conventionally--using pesticides and chemical fertilizer--and the other was grown using organic practices.
The researchers found the organic kiwis had higher levels of vitamin C polyphenols. (compounds belived to reduce cholesterol) and antioxidants which are thought to back up decrease the disease-causing cell damage caused by free radicals.
Still when when the bear was stored at 20 degrees Celsius for seven days there was no difference in vitamin C levels. And some say increased nutrient and antioxidant levels may not prove in health benefits.
