The benefits of eating apples:

① Apple contains tannic acid and organic acids, which have astringent and antidiarrheal effects.

②The crude fiber in the apple can make the stool soft and facilitate the excretion, so the apple has the dual effects of antidiarrheal and laxative.

③ Apple can also invigorate the spleen and stomach, promote the digestion and absorption of food, and play an important role in intestinal excretion and nutrient absorption.

An Italian study showed that eating at least one apple a day can reduce the incidence of a variety of cancers: oral and throat 2 cancer decreased by 21%, esophageal cancer by 25%, colon cancer by 20%, breast cancer by 18%, ovarian cancer by 15%, and prostate cancer by 9%.

Harvard University epidemiological survey shows that people who do not eat apples are more likely to lose their teeth when they are old.

Researchers at Harvard University found that women who eat an apple a day have a 28% lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes than those who do not eat apples.

Taboos for eating apples:

1. Apples should not be eaten with seafood

Apple contains tannic acid. Eating with seafood not only reduces the nutritional value of seafood protein, but also prone to abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Similarly, other fruits containing more tannins, such as strawberries, bayberry, persimmons, pomegranates, lemons, grapes, and sour grapefruits, are not suitable for eating with seafood. Apples are very nutritious. When eating apples, chew slowly. This is not only good for digestion, but also prevents disease and cancer.

2, eat apples, do not eat apple cores

Apple core contains a small amount of harmful substances-hydrocyanic acid. A large amount of hydrocyanic acid is deposited in the body, which can cause symptoms such as dizziness, headache, and rapid breathing rate. In severe cases, coma may occur. But don't worry too much. The hydrocyanic acid in apples is mainly in the core, not in the pulp. What needs to be reminded is that when you eat apples, you often bite the pit, although it will not cause poisoning immediately, but eating like this for a long time is indeed bad for your health.
