    This reads like an advert for kiwi.

    This study looked at how daily doses of vitamin C—either from a 250 mg tablet or, more enticingly, two SunGoldTM kiwifruits—can affect our mood, energy, and overall sense of well-being.

      They can be in the right context but not when they’re comparing interventions which cannot be blinded. And where one of the interventions changes something else (in this case, the amount of other foods you eat if you have to eat two kiwi fruit instead of just popping a pill).

    So, I use the Newsbreak app because it has articles from some local news sources, and I haven’t bothered to set up an RSS feed with those sources.

    That said, the “Newsbreak Originals” are flaming hot garbage with AI-generated content, outdated news, insane religious or pseudoscience bunk, and other nonsense.

    If possible, the mods of this community should consider automatically filtering out posts from this domain.

      • I used to eat kiwi a lot more… But then they stopped selling them like normal fruits and veggies where I could just grab 1 or 2 and instead they sell them in big containers of like 20 or so kiwis. I don’t want that many, and I certainly don’t want to pay $12 for them.

        If big kiwi wants to sell me more fruit, stop only selling them like blueberries and let me buy one at a time.
