When they say an apple a day keeps the doctor way, it's not just a cliche. There are scientific studies and analysis to back up this claim. And if I were you, I'll start on making it a daily habit. It controls weight, fights cancer and lowers the risk of a heart disease. It's one of the better way not to miss on nutrition while you enjoy its delicious treat. Although there are apple juice and pies, there's nothing like a bite from the glossy, red fruit. They may have the same iron and potassium content but it contains less on quertecin and fiber which is an active health ingredient.
