They can reduce the risk of colon cancer, prostate cancer and lung cancer apples contain relatively low amounts of Vitamin C as well as several other antioxidant compounds.
Apple juice is good as a nutritious drink in helping sort out digestive disturbances and for flushing the kidneys.
Eating apples with their skin is good for you because a lot of vitamin C content is right underneath the skin!
Unfortunately, the skin of the apple also most likely to contain pesticide!! Since peeling will lose valuable fiber in Apples, please choose organically grown apples whenever possible.
Make sure to wash apples under clear running water for cleaning!
