The skin on kiwis is high in oxalates, so if you are prone to kidney stones, be careful.
Well now I'm terrified. Am I about to be pissing gravel?
Sorry to scare you. I'm not by any means a doctor, but from what I understand it tends to be an issue more with people who are already predisposed. So it's probably not something most people have to be too concerned about.
Unfortunately you put the idea in my mind so now I'll never be able to enjoy a kiwi again lol.
I am petrified of kidney stones. It's why I stopped drinking energy drinks almost entirely. Every time I drink one I am reminded of my doctor telling me that those drinks are dangerous to drink often and part of that is the significant increased chances for kidney stones.
I appreciate you letting me know though. Better to have knowledge and have it changed your habits vs being blissfully unaware all the time. Though being blissfully unaware does seem awful tempting these days...
