The golden kiwi doesn’t get a lot of love, despite the fact that it has a variety of nutrients. Aside from the color difference, the golden kiwi has smoother skin, fewer seeds, and a sweeter flavor than the regular green kiwi. On a nutritional level, the golden kiwi has more vitamin C than the regular green kiwi. In fact, one golden kiwi has three times more vitamin C than an orange does!
Golden kiwi may be the featured ingredient in this smoothie, but we can’t ignore the other two ingredients: pineapple and turmeric. Pineapple contains beneficial digestive enzymes, vitamin C, and antioxidants that boost immune function. Turmeric needs no introduction. It’s a heavy hitter in the world of health and wellness. It’s known for the anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties, and everyone should include it in their diet.
