Apples apples apples!!!

I eat 2 apples a day because they taste so good. Studies are showing that apples really are a super fruit for health and wellness!


Apple Nutrition Facts Worth Thinking About

  • Apples are absolutely fat-free!

  • One apple provides as much dietary fiber as a bowl of bran cereal. That's equal to one fifth of the recommended daily intake of fiber.

  • Apples are loaded with pectin, a soluble fiber that aids digestion and may help reduce cancer and heart disease.

  • The complex carbohydrates in apples give your body a longer, more even energy boost compared to high-sugar snacks. Snacking on apples can keep you going throughout the day.

  • Apples provide boron, an essential trace element that helps harden bones. Strong bones help prevent osteoporosis.
