An apple a day, you don't even know how good it is for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Apples' nutritional composition helps prevent several diseases, such as diabetes, high cholesterol, cardiovascular disease, and some types of cancer. Therefore, it should be included in your diet.<\/span><\/p>\n

This fruit is rich in water (approximately 80%), which facilitates hydration. This benefit, combined with its high fiber content, allows for better regulation of intestinal transit. The soluble fibers in this fruit, such as pectin, help reduce cholesterol and regulate appetite.<\/span><\/p>\n

Apples also contain vitamin C, and their antioxidant activity is enhanced by the presence of phenolic compounds and flavonoids. This benefit is particularly evident in the peel. A study evaluating the varieties of Alcoba\u00e7a apple extracts concluded that, in all of them, antioxidant activity is significantly higher in the peel compared to the pulp.<\/span><\/p>\n

How should it be ingested?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Therefore, the apple should be eaten predominantly with the skin, offering nutritional benefits whether raw, baked or cooked.<\/span><\/p>\n
