carbs in applesApples are one of the most popular and widely consumed fruits. They are a member of the Rose family, and therefore related to almonds, plums, cherries and pears. Apples are a good source of dietary fiber and vitamin C.

The phytonutrients found in abundance in apples have been shown to both reduce the risk of cancer and to help regulate blood sugar levels. Most of these beneficial compounds are found in the skin of the apple, so eating the whole fruit is best to ensure the greatest health benefits. Other benefits from these nutrients include decreased cholesterol and reduced inflammation, which both help promote cardiovascular health.
