An Apple a Day Keeps the Doctor Away

"An Apple a Day Keeps the Doctor Away" might be an old adage but it still rings true today. Consider these nutritional facts reported by the U.S. Apple Association: Apples are fat free, saturated fat free, sodium free, cholesterol free, and an excellent source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber.

Furthermore, an apple is a natural source of health-promoting phytonutrients, including plant-based antioxidants; this fruit may promote bone health, and, because of its high fiber content, an apple's natural sugars are slowly released into the blood stream, helping maintain steady blood sugar levels.

Apple products are a delicious, nutritious, and easy way to eat more fruit and promote good health.
