APPLES are extremely rich in natural dietary fiber, antioxidants n flavanoids n their regular consumption reduces the risk of developing a lot of health hazards like diabetes, hypertension, heart diseases which are so prevalent in our today’s fast-paced life; Apples are also so essential while trying to lose weight which is again so important to keep yourself HEALTHY!
