Everyone knows the phrase “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” the question is, is it true? Can eating an apple every day, make you less sick? The good news is that apples have A LOT of healthy properties, Pectin (a form of fiber that lowers glucose in the body), Boron (helps with bone strength and brain health), Vitamin C (boosts your immune system) and Phytonutrients (fight damage from free radicals in the body). Eating one apple everyday can reduce the risk of diabetes, high blood pressure, and a lot of types of cancers. Needless to say a long with the nutrients in apples and those benefits, you should try to eat an apple every day.
With that being said, this does not mean that apples should
be the only fruit you eat, many fruits have great benefits. Also this also does
not mean you will not ever get sick (with colds and things like that) you can
just lower the risks. So go enjoy an apple today!
**Apples are in season now so pick some up at the store, or
make a day of it and go apple picking with some loved ones!**
Live Healthy,
