It turns out, apple has many different health benefits. Apples reduce the risk of heart disease and strokes.
Apples are a naturally fat-free, saturated fat-free, and cholesterol-free food, and are an excellent source of fiber – both soluble (including pectin) and insoluble types. Apple is a fiber rich fruit and fiber lowers cholesterol levels in the blood, so the "bad" LDL cholesterol doesn’t get a chance to clog arteries where it might cause a heart attack or stroke.
Apples are also good for reduce cancer risk and reduces high blood pressure risk.
Apple are usually a part of every healthy diet and weight losing diets. It might be because apples’ fiber fills you up faster, so you eat less and feel fuller for longer.
But what it actually caught my attention is that apple can actually help your dental health.
Crunchy, juicy apples act like nature’s toothbrush, keeping teeth healthy and scrubbing away stains over time. Their rough, fibrous texture and natural tannins, chased with a rinse of water, make them ideal for cleaning and brightening teeth.
Not only apples are good for that matter, but carrots, radish, cucumber, orange, pear, beetroot, watermelon, etc.
Raw foods are also very good natural teeth cleaners, many doctors suggest to eat some raw food after every meals. This will help clean your teeth and gums due to high water content. However, after eating citrus fruits or juices, rinse your mouth with water, as the acids present in them can weaken enamel.
This information was very new and interesting to me. If you know of other healthy foods that can help us get a nicer smile, leave us a comment.
