What's in an Apple?

Bountiful health and weight loss, plus a whole lot more.
Apples slow down the digestion of other foods to keep you fuller, longer. This is very important when you are watching your weight because an increase in satiety may lead to a decrease in total calories eaten. Less total calories will help you burn body fat for fuel and assist in weight loss.
Apples are known to reduce hunger and promote weight loss due to their high fiber content and hydration level. But, there is a great deal more to it than that. Here is a great article on the incredible health benefits of apples.
Just to name a few things, apples work to reduce cholesterol, heart attack, stroke, and heart disease. They elicit elevated antioxidant protection, sun protection, stablize blood sugar levels, prevent kidney stones, contribute to optimal lung function, and even protect against bone loss.
Apples are awesome because they are cheap, quick and easy eat, they go with everything, and there are so many unique varieties that one can never get bored.
So, stock up, eat up and never leave home without (at least) one.
