Do you always go to the doctor for check up eventhough your well?How often do you see your doctor?Im not having my monthly check up but in a year there will always be a time that I have to see my doctor for my check up.Now here we go,do you believe that eating an apple a day will rid you from getting sick?

Hi Dear
i dont want to visit a doctor unless its necessary, so i am not going for monthly or annual check up. Why i go if i am Ok
And i believe that having proper diet and staying clean saves u from many diseases. and in todays inflation, trust me not every one can afford An apple a day
Take care

I don't visit a doctor not until I'm not really feeling well and can't handle it. But it seldom happens!

Hi bestie. I don't always go to the doctor for check-up. Actually I rarely go to the doctor. I prefer to go to the pharmacy more than to a doctor because this way it is quicker and there are a lot of choice for medicine. As what you are writing, eating an apple a day can rid us from any sickness, I don't have a strong standing on it because to my own body, eating an apple can only cause me stomachache. Moreover, I am a gastritis sufferer, and I can't eat apple. However, I've heard a lot of my friends say that the skin of the apple is good to be used as facial scrub. After you peel the skin, you pound it until it becomes like a paste and spread it into your face area and neck. Use it like you use facial scrub.

i always make a point to have a health check every year. health is wealth and i dont want to get sick. i have four children and i am a single mom so i can not afford to be sick. about apple.... apples makes me constipate so for me any fruits will do. as long as we eat a balance diet and we eat fruits and veggies and a lot of water. but still we need to have our health check. we dont need to just rely on the fruits and veggies we eat.

I like eating apple and it tastes really good. But these days, i don't have usually, because it is very expensive in my place. I wish winter's come...
There maybe at least two years I havn't gone to the hospital.I guess the apple has the positive effect.

I have not been seeing my doctor regularly. I just keep eating an apple a day ! LOL ! No,no. You are right. I should see my doctor regularly. So far, I see the doctor only when I have some complaints. That's when he does some checkups too, and advises me . Thank you for reminding me.
Have a nice day !

Not really but I do hear that it can keep the dentist away. Although substituting an apple for some mcdonalds couldn't hurt. I really do not keep a regular check up with my doctor at least not more freaquent than every 5 yrs thats required for me to continue diving in the Navy.
