This is a myth but the reason it got started was because years ago people did not eat fruit and ended up really sick . So they figured that if you ate an apple a day it would prevent your from becoming ill as when they did they were not struck down with survey the way family and friends were . The apple a day though is also a good way to remind us that healthy eating is better for us .

In years past that adage was started because when one ate an apple a day, they were not as likely to suffer from scurvy (vitamin C deficiency) and also not as likely to get consitpated. Since they didn't have scurvy and weren't constipated, they didn't need the doctor!
