Fiber + Antioxidants

Apples are arguably one of the most popular fruits, and for good reason! They boast a range of health benefits as they contain a good source of fiber, vitamin C and polyphenols. They contain pectin, a type of fiber that feeds the good bacteria in your gut, maintaining a healthy digestive system by outweighing those bad bacteria. They also prove their superfood properties with high antioxidant levels! The vitamin C and polyphenols act as antioxidants by protecting your body against internal damage caused by destructive cells. The more antioxidants we consume, the more chance we have of fighting off infection, inflammation and oxidative stress. Perhaps an apple a day really will keep the doctor away.
