Link to article: apples as super foods article reading
Ever wonder why they say, \”An apple a day keeps the doctor away\”? Its because of antioxidants!!! Well that\’s just one reason. Read the article above about apples and why they have been a nutritious staple super-food in many diets, and a key success in a healthy regime. Also, take a look at why its not just a crock to focus on eating a diet full of healthy fruits and veggies, with the article Antioxidants in dietary plants.
I also wanted to give a handout as a little reference guide for sweeteners to avoid and caffeine content in food-stuffs. Enjoy! Thanks as always, and be aware and eat with care 🙂
