  • Five Reasons for Women to Eat Apples
  • It is known to all that eating apples is rather beneficial to the human health. However, few people can know clearly about the benefits of apples. There are five reasons for women to eat apples in everyday life. 

    The first reason is that the nutrients and phytochemical compositions can help women resist cancer. It is easy for fat women to get cancer. The researchers in Italy study the dietary situation among 629 patients with various cancers. The result shows that the risk of getting diseases like rectal cancer, esophagus cancer, breast cancer and ovarian cancer can be decreased if people eat more than one apple each day. Except traditional nutrients and dietary fibers, abundant flavonoids compounds are also contained in apples. Flavonoids compounds are natural anti-oxidants which can protect the deoxyribonucleic acid and resist cancer.

    The second reason is that eating apples can prevent osteoporosis for women. The mineral elements like and manganese contained in apples can strengthen the sclerotin. Boron can greatly increase the estrogens and the density of other compounds in the blood, which can effectively prevent the loss of calcium. The medical experts think that if postmenopausal women can absorb 3 grams of boron each day, the rate of calcium loss can be decreased 46%. That means eating apples can improve the absorption of calcium and prevent osteoporosis for postmenopausal women.

    The third reason is that eating apples can prevent apoplexia. The apple peel should also be eaten, as abundant flavonoids compounds are contained in the peel to increase the activity of anti-oxidation and prevent apoplexia for middle and old aged women.

    The fourth reason is that various nutritional elements can prevent the heart disease. Apples contain abundant folic acid. As an important composition of vitamin B, folic acid can effectively prevent the heart disease. The anti-oxidants contained in apples can be beneficial to the operation of the heart. The fibers, pectin and other compositions can reduce the bad cholesterol inside the body and increase the good cholesterol so as to reduce the risk of getting the heart disease for the human body. In addition, the calories contained in apples are relatively low, and no fat and sodium are contained. Therefore, apples are rather suitable for women who want to lose weight to eat.

    The fifth reason is that apples can neutralize the acidic substances inside the human body. It is easy for women with acidic constitution to get diseases. Apples are alkaline, so eating apples can neutralize the extra acidic substances inside the body to strengthen the immunity to various diseases.
