Kiwi fruit combines high essential fatty acids with substantial antioxidant properties.  As such, various forms of kiwi serve as extraordinary anti-aging ingredients.  As an extract, kiwi contains antioxidants more potent than those found in green tea.  In combination with this ingredient's essential fatty acids, it is ideal for inclusion in high performance anti-aging products.  The seeds themselves are generally manufactured through a process that includes isolating the seeds, milling them and then sterilizing them to ensure protection from common contaminants.  The seeds make an excellent addition to products designed to offer gentle exfoliation, including soaps, shower gels, cleansers and facial scrubs.
