An apple a day keeps the doctor away; why?
You’ve always heard that an apple a day keeps the doctor away, but did you really ever know why? The majority of people have probably figured it was just because they’re loaded with vitamins and minerals, but in fact there’s much more! The skin of an apple is packed with quercetin and naringin—flavoniods that protect lungs from pollutants, improving lung function and reducing the risk of lung cancer. Besides reducing asthma symptoms and the risk for lung cancer, apples can also reduce the risks for breast cancer, colon cancer, liver cancer, and Alzheimer’s. As a low-calorie, fiber-dense fruit—apples are also great for weight loss. Not hungry? Make a green apple face mask instead! Surprisingly, the simple at-home remedy helps replenish moisture and smooth fine lines.
