Apples contain soluble and
insoluble fibers but each has its own health benefits. The insoluble fiber is a good remedy for constipation while it helps the digestive tract to run smoothly. It prevents diverticulosis and controls weight gain as an appetite supressant. On the other hand, the soluble fiber in apples also known as pectin lessens the liver production of cholesterol which aids a slow digestion and promotes good blood sugar level making apples ideal for diabetes patients.
