The most popular fruit in the world, apples, used to only be accessible for a few months of the year and came in a small number of different types.
Lower cholesterol
Pectin, a naturally occurring fiber in plants, is present in apples. According to a recent study published in the European Journal of Nutrition, eating whole apples that are high in pectin lowers cholesterol in healthy volunteers more than drinking apple juice. According to research published in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, postmenopausal women who consumed about 75g of dried apples (or about two apples) had lower cholesterol levels.
Protect against diabetes
Apples have a low glycaemic index (GI) because they contain fibre. This, along with its high flavonoid content, may aid in enhancing insulin sensitivity, which is crucial for controlling weight and avoiding diabetes.
Prevent obesity
Pectin from apples may help manage the gut microbiota (good gut bacteria), which may help prevent obesity and other inflammatory illnesses, according to animal research. Studies on people are promising as well, but further study is required.
The ideal temperature for storing apples is somewhere between 30- and 35-degrees F, with about 90 percent humidity.
