Usually, when we take another apple, we leave the core.
But, as it turns out, we are doing this in vain.
The thing is that this part of the apple contains a lot of beneficial bacteria, probiotics, which have a positive effect on the functioning of the intestines.
This statement was made by TV doctor Elena Malysheva as part of the program “Live Healthy”.
She also spoke about the benefits of apples themselves, noting that they contain a useful substance - pectin. It can absorb excess fluid, cholesterol, harmful elements and carcinogens. All this will eventually leave the body along with the stool.
This is not all the benefits of apples. They should also be eaten if there are problems with blood pressure.
In addition, the doctor added on TV that apples contain useful compounds that are important for cancer prevention – flavonoids. By the way, there are more of these substances in red fruits.
As for the process of storing such fruits, it is better to keep them in the refrigerator, but first you need to put them in a closed container or wrap them in parchment.
