An Apple a Day

Hi there, I often come across sentences like an apple a day for a good health and for other purposes too. Why only an apple? Why not guava? You know a guava has almost all ingredient that is expected to be in in other fruits. Our people say five apples are equal to one guava. So have guava and stay healthy.

Today, I actually sauteed some with sugar and cinnamon and wrapped it with some flour and fried it. I made it much more unhealthier than you by adding the sugar and fry, but it was gooood.

I t olike apples and never thought about adding cinnamon on top of them for a good snack but maybe i will try them. I only like cold apple and anyways i like all my fruit cold. I do eat peaches and enxtarines and cut them into bite sie pieces and add sugar on top but i jsut never thought about doing this with an apple. Maybe i will be trying this tonight to see what it is like. I always have snack after dinner around 6 to keep me going at night so maybe i will be eating an apple to keep me going.

Yes eating an apple or any fruit for that matter and substituting it for junk food is a good healthy habit, just make sure that you wash them well cause I've read that thin skin of apples are more prone to absorbing pesticides and chemicals that lengthen shelf life, anyway I presume you buy them from a good source or perhaps own your own tree, why not also add bananas and mangoes to your snack and rotate it with those healthy apples (just a suggestion)if they are also readily available in your place or country, good luck pal and happy healthy eating

good suggestion. one apple a day, get the doctor away. I will get up early and washes one apple and put it to my handbag before go to office

Hello. I like apple too. I eat the fruit and also often drink the juice. Doctors may not like that, because "An apple a day, keeps the doctor away". Ha ha ! Any way, apple is one of my favorite fruits.

I hav thuoght about doing this before but I just never started it. I think it's good for us.
