The kiwifruit skin is completely edible and even adds extra nutrition to the most nutrient dense fruit! There are consumers throughout the world that have been eating the skin for years with no complaints. Eating the skin makes kiwifruit a much easier snack. Also, sliced kiwifruit with the skin holds the slices together better and adds texture and nutrition. There have not been many studies done on the nutritional content of the kiwifruit skin since most consumers are not brave enough to try it. But one study does show that the skin triples your fiber intake, which is already high in the flesh alone (20% DV per serving - a serving is two kiwifruit). Of course, there is loss of Vitamin C when peeling the skin since most of your vitamins are generally right inside the skin. Also, kiwifruit without the skin is high in antioxidants, ranked third in the most popular snacking fruits behind Oranges and red grapes. Another study found that the highest amount of antioxidants in kiwifruit are found in the leaves and in the skin. However, the exact level of antioxidants in the skin was not measured. Just like any fresh fruit or vegetable, we suggest that you wash the skin before eating since it is unknown who or what touched it before you eat it. So enjoy your kiwifruit, skin and all!
