Apples
An apple a day may in fact keep your cardiologist away. Evidence has shown that frequent apple consumption may reduce total cholesterol, which can help reduce your risk of heart disease. That’s thanks to the phenolic compounds — antioxidant compounds that help to promote healthy cellular function and proper blood flow — found in apple skins.
There are so many ways to eat apples, from simple slices dipped in nut butter or yogurt, to stuffed with nuts and raisins and baked — even as part of a salad or sandwich!
