Green Apples


My hubby is very fond of eating fruits, one of them is green apples. And when I say very fond, I mean very fond. He can eat around 6 apples a day (or maybe more if I give it to him lol). Yesterday, when I was buying his stock of green apples, the salesperson asked if it will be for resell. I told him nope, that it is for personal consumption. He then said it's good for diabetes. Which made me curious as to what are the health benefits of green apples. Using Google, here is what I had found:
  • Contains a lot of fiber, which is good for digestion.
  • The chances of colon cancer are less if one eats green apple.
  • Relieves constipation.
  • Beneficial in treating gout.
  • Useful in controlling diarrhea.
  • Reduces blood pressure.
  • Blood sugar gets stabilized.
  • Helps in treating rheumatism.
  • Improves one’s appetite.
  • It contains carbohydrates and therefore provides much energy.
  • It contains protein.
  • Has plenty of vitamins, such as Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Riboflavin, Vitamin B6 and it is one of the most prominent green apple benefits.
  • It also has plenty of minerals such as calcium, iron, magnesium, Manganese, Iron, Potassium, Copper, Zinc
  • It helps in preventing liver problems.
  • Lessens the chances of developing skin diseases.
  • It consists of several anti-oxidants such as polyphenol as well as flavonoid that helps in reducing the risk of cancer by not allowing DNA damage to occur.
  • It has less cholesterol and is therefore useful for those losing weight.
  • As green apple contains a lot of Vitamin A,B as well C, it is very good for the nourishment of skin and also has a whitening effect on it.
  • It purifies the blood as it contains a lot of minerals.
  • One also less chances of suffering from liver problems.
I was going to highlight which of these are very beneficial to him but I think everything here is beneficial to everyone lol
