I have been addicted to apples since I was a small child. Our neighbors had a crab apple tree and I would spend hours up in the tree eating as many apples as I could. I loved them! Mom made amazing homemade Applesauce and for snacks, I would eat apples as often as possible.
Today as an adult, I still love apples. Now I know the wonderful health benefits of apples. The old saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” has certainly worked for me!
Packed full of fiber and Vitamin C, low in calories with plenty of antioxidants, plus many heart-healthy benefits like help for coronary heart disease and cardiovascular disease, apples are a healthy choice for everyday snacking. They are known to help lower cholesterol, reduce inflammation not to mention overall helps to reduce the chance of many cancers. They truly are nature’s medicine!
I love to add apples to my juice blends and try to juice them 4-5 times a week. Here is a simple and delicious blend that I often enjoy.
