Weighty Wednesday




An apple a day not only keeps the doctor away... it helps you lose weight. Eating a small apple before each meal is a proven weight-loss booster.

An apple is the perfect blend of fiber and water. The combo of fiber and water makes you feel full, which helps your overall health, because it keeps you from eating other things that are more likely to lead to problems associated with obesity, like heart disease and diabetes.

Another benefit of fiber and water: Together they keep your food bulky and soft, so it can move easily through your system without putting too much pressure on your intestines. Remember, without water, fiber often turns to cement.

Be sure to go for organic apples. If not organic, at least makae sure they're free of pesticides. Apples are among the top 12 most pesticide-polluted fruits and veggies.
