I read an article today on 250 mg of vitamin C helping with sleep, mood, digestion, The article recommended 2 kiwi fruit a day as an example. You don't need a lot of Vitamin C but need to have 250 mg per day. Do you know if you are getting that? Might help your sleep issues?
"“The important thing is to keep your plasma levels optimal, which we know can be easily achieved in a healthy person with a vitamin C intake of around 250mg per day.”
Because the body can’t produce vitamin C on its own, getting enough through diet is crucial as the antioxidant helps neutralize free radicals that damage cells, giving the immune system serious support.
In addition to staving off colds and giving skin a glow up, studies have found that kiwis can boost bowel function and ease symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome. They also improve stool frequency and consistency, making them a natural ally against constipation.
And the green flags for the green fruit keep on coming.
Scientists found that eating kiwi can boost one’s mood in as little as four days."
