Apples – Not for Vitamin C, Not for Cancer Either

December 16th, 2009 § 1 Comment

… Keeps the doctor away.

The crunch of a crispy apple can not only be the loudest thing in your office building around 2PM (if you work in quiet settings), but it can also be one of the most effective cancer prevention – colon, prostate, and lung, yep, apples just may be your saving grace from all three and more.

While not as potent a source for Vitamin C as some think apples are also great source of antioxidants and have also been shown to prevent aging in mice.  Now does that translate to humans?  Who knows – not us anyway.  Scientists need something interesting to write about, so why not the effects of apples on mice.  Anyway, you can bet your lucky stars that these are a better bet for you than anti-aging pills, miracle surgical solutions, and most other things you see on TV with a hefty price.

Start eating well.  Apples are a fast healthy food low fat, and are just plain delicious, if you get the right ones.  Here’s to you, mom’s.  An apple a day, just might keep the doctor away.
