APPLE INFO
PREMIUM RED DELICIOUS, FUJI, GRANNY SMITH AND ROYAL GALA APPLE GIFT PACKS A Healthy Refreshing and Wholesome Alternative to Junk Food!
Apples are high in fiber with no cholesterol and contain only 80 fat-free calories per serving.Apples contain healthy fructose (sugar) instead of processed sugar. Almost everything we read these days talks about the importance of fiber in our diets. An apple has nearly as much fiber as a bowl of your favorite bran flakes! And, apples not only have no cholesterol, they actually fight it.
The pectin fiber in apples works to lower your blood cholesterol while at the same time absorbing water which allows the fiber to stay in your stomach longer.
The benefit is that you feel full longer and fight bad cholesterol.
The sweetness in apples comes from fructose, and unlike other snacks and desserts that are made with processed sugar, apples satisfy your sweet tooth naturally while not adversely affecting your blood sugar.Fructose causes your body to increase it's blood sugar levels at a slower pace which allows you to maintain a more desirable level longer.
This means all that great apple energy sticks with you and you can forget counting calories. With an average of 80 fat-free calories in each apple, you can't find anything healthier.
Best of all, apples are low in sodium. They are lower than a stalk of celery, a carrot or even less than a glass of ordinary tap water.
