Amazing Benefits Of Apples

Apples are delicious fruits! 
They have striking color and a rosy aroma as they belong to the rose family of plants, Rosaceae. They are scientifically known to be full of minerals and vitamins.
Do you know that Apples are a store house of fibers, with about 4 grams of fiber enclosed in a medium-sized apple?
That’s where the popular saying comes from – “An Apple A Day Keeps The Doctor Away.” The other names for apples are (Seb) in Hindi, (Safarjan) in Guajrati, and (Safarchand) Marathi.

Here is how apple fruits benefits health!
Anti-Cholesterol 
 Apples have high amounts of fiber. When we eat apples, the soluble fibers compete with fats in the intestine.
This competition between fibers and fats result in the decrease of absorption of LDL low-density lipoprotein or bad cholesterol levels and increase in absorption of HDL high-density lipoprotein or good cholesterol.
This how apples and cholesterol levels control in the body is connected.
 Preventing Alzheimer’s An experiment performed on mice found that apple consumption in the regular diet results in higher doses of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Also, in Alzheimer’s, the nerve cells of the brain are damaged, and apple juice which contains flavonoids helps repair the damaged cells.
So, drinking apple juice can reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s and can battle against the decaying of the brain.
Diabetes 
 Another important health benefit of apples is that it aids in fighting off oxygen-free radicals that cause diabetes. Apples are loaded with soluble fibers, the key to blunting blood sugar swings.
The high soluble fiber, pectin in apples, helps in controlling blood sugar levels in the body by transporting the sugar into the blood stream at a slower rate.
Women who eat at least one apple a day are 28 percent less likely to develop type 2 diabetes than those who don’t eat apples.
Averting Asthma 
 Phytochemicals and polyphenols are the chemicals that give apple its healing properties, which can assist an individual recovering from asthma, breathing problems and improve the general functioning of the lungs. 
Research shows that children who consume apple juice regularly showed reduced risks of suffering from asthma attacks and wheezing problems as compared to those who seldom consume apple juice.
In contrast, eating whole apples didn’t seem to be of any benefit to the wheezing and asthmatic children.

 Apples have an antioxidant known as quercetin which is especially found in red delicious apples. This antioxidant boosts the immune system to build the natural defenses of the body. The other nutrient present in an apple is vitamin C that has anti-inflammatory properties. Fibers also enhance the immune system. It is because of this that apples are considered to be high immunity boosters.
