One South African apple counts as one of your *-a-day and they are full of lovely health benefits, such as:

High in vitamin C (6mg per **0g) Low in fat and do not contain any cholesterol High in dietary fibre (1.8g per **0g) A good source of potassium (**0mg per **0g)

Apples are a delicious source of dietary fibre, which helps to aid digestion. A diet rich in apples could also help to lower cholesterol levels in the blood. Due to antioxidants and flavonoids present in apples, eating them could improve lung function and reduce the risk of respiratory diseases. Apples have also been found to play a role in inhibiting ageing related problems, helping to prevent wrinkles and promote hair growth. An apple wont replace your toothbrush, but biting and chewing an apple stimulates the production of saliva in your mouth, reducing tooth decay by lowering the levels of bacteria. Apples are loaded with soluble fibre, the key to reducing sugar swings, which can greatly reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Red apples contain an antioxidant called quercetin. Recent studies have found that quercetin can help boost and fortify your immune system, especially when youre stressed out.
