More about our fall favorites. Did you know that a diet rich in Apples:
- May help with tummy trouble: The soluble fiber in apples helps detoxify the intestines in some cases reducing colitis, gastroenteritis and diarrhea. Also creates a favorable environment in the gut for our so called "good bacteria" to thrive.
- Has an antiinflammatory effect: Contains tannins and flavonoids which help reduce inflammation
- May help prevent osteoporosis: Contains Boron which appears to work with calcium and magnesium in building bone density.
- May help with arteriosclerosis, lowering cholesterol and may improve hypertension: The tannins and flavonoids seem to be at work here.
- May help seasonal allergies and eczema: Helps to detoxify. Again the tannins and flavonoids in particular: quercetin, help keep allergies at bay.
And as for sweet potatoes, another seasonal favorite, next time lets discuss five reasons to keep them on the holiday table!
