Studies show that eating an apple a day can lower your risk of many types of cancer (including breast cancer, prostate cancer, and colorectal cancer). That’s because apples are packed with cancer-fighting antioxidants. Apples are also high in fiber, which is proven to improve your cholesterol levels, lowering LDL (or “bad”) cholesterol and increasing HDL (or “good) cholesterol. Apples also contain polyphenols, which work with the fiber to make the fruit even more efficient at getting your cholesterol levels down.
There’s strong evidence that making apples a part of your diet can lower your risk of developing Type II Diabetes by up to 23%. Experts say the fruit's fiber helps stabilize blood sugar. Flavonoids, a type of antioxidant, also play an important role.
