What happens when you eat Apples every day??. Content Warning.
Hello everyone, you have all eaten apples before, but perhaps many of you are unaware of their amazing benefits. Speaking of the benefits of apples, there is a very famous saying in the West that I will roughly translate as: If you eat an apple a day, the doctor will stay away. This means that if you eat an apple every day, you will never get sick and never have to visit the doctor. But are apples truly that miraculous? No, let's explore in today's video. First, we want to understand what makes something good or bad by looking at what a typical apple contains. What are the components of an apple? Let's say, for a 100g apple, a manageable amount, it contains a high amount of carbohydrates at 25g, or 25%. Next is 4.5g of fiber. Vitamin C fulfills 9% of a person's daily requirement, followed by potassium and Vitamin K. So, how does your body change if you eat an apple every day? Firstly, apples are rich in fiber, one of the greatest benefits they offer. Apples are packed with nutrients that most people lack: fiber, over 5 grams more than a typical apple. Meeting your daily fiber goal of 25 grams, as recommended by health experts, in just around 20 minutes. What is the purpose of fiber? Firstly, it makes your digestive system smoother and you won't have to worry about constipation. Secondly, the fiber in apples also helps promote a healthier microbial system in your gut. Did you know that your gut, my gut, and everyone else's gut sitting here contains bacteria, actually a lot of bacteria? We think our gut is full, but for bacteria, your gut is their world, even their universe, and importantly, do not make the mistake of thinking bacteria are always harmful. On the contrary, many bacteria are very beneficial and even crucial to the extent that without them, the body would be in danger, especially in developed countries. In well-off families, they even reserve a portion of beneficial bacteria in the gut so that if the gut weakens later, they still have supplementary beneficial bacteria to help maintain a healthy digestive system as before and return to normal. For apples, the fiber in this type of apple is also very different. It originates from pectin, creating an acid called butyric acid, which is particularly known for its skin-nourishing properties. The intestinal flora is very beneficial. It could be said that fiber in apples is very good for bacteria. Feeding fiber from apples to bacteria is like enjoying a thousand-year-old ginseng root, just like that. The first but also very important benefit of apples is that as I write this, I stand up, grab an apple, take a bite, and continue writing. Okay, let's move on to the next benefit, which is that eating an apple can help you lose weight. In general, inflammatory conditions, such as nasal inflammation, sore throat, pneumonia, may likely be improved by eating apples, except for peritonitis, eating apples doesn't help and only worsens your condition. Regarding why apples may be beneficial for inflammation, researchers have found that apples are rich in antioxidants called quercetin, known for their anti-inflammatory properties. The ability to control inflammation in the body is further enhanced by apples containing other antioxidants like catechin and vitamin C, both of which help reduce damage in your cells. If you want to know about quercetin, please watch a video on it. Green tea must be included, especially in green tea leaves, so green tea is also very effective, especially for the body. Eating apples can help reduce inflammation. This is the second benefit, followed by the third benefit, which many people may desire, which is that eating apples is also good for the cardiovascular system. Specifically, scientists have studied the effects of eating apples on the cardiovascular system when consumed regularly. Heart disease or not? It turns out that research shows that besides Snow White accidentally eating an apple, regular apple eaters reduce the risk of developing certain chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease. In particular, a study of over 20,000 adults found that consuming a lot of apples and white-fleshed fruits was associated with a reduced risk of stroke, but you may wonder why. If apples have such an effect, the answer lies in apples containing a compound called flavonoid, a compound proven to have anti-inflammatory effects as mentioned earlier and more importantly, to protect heart health. Additionally, you may recall that apples are low in fiber and soluble fiber, which can help reduce blood pressure and lower bad cholesterol in the blood, both of which are risk factors for heart disease, so if they disappear, the body will be at peace, just like a society without scammers, and everyone will be happy. The third benefit that apples bring is that they help reduce the risk of sudden death like Snow White's prince. Next, we move on to the fourth benefit: apples reduce the risk of cancer. I did not know about this in our ancestors' time. When picking fruits from trees to eat, did anyone get cancer? Because back then, surely everyone ate a lot of apples and fruits. Sometimes they even had rice, although we don't know how it was back then, science has discovered that apples have cancer-fighting properties. In particular, apples contain compounds that can help prevent the formation of cancer, including antioxidants and flavonoids. In summary, Cancer is the formation of cancer. terrifying development and spread when a defective cell is damaged.
