Health Benefit of the Week: Apples!

An idea spurred by one of my friends Jimmy, I decided to start a weekly post about a variety of foods, and their health benefits. So I'd like to start with the mythical fruit that's supposed to keep you from ever needing to enter a doctor's office: the Apple.
No, not that Apple...Stronger bones: Apples contain chemicals and elements such as Boron, which are proven to increase bone density.Helps prevent asthmaHelps prevent heart disease: Apples have a chemical that lowers "bad" cholesterol, which helps your heart and other body functions work better.Helps prevent lung, colon, liver, and breast cancerHelps you lose weightGood source of vitamins and antioxidantsRecent research shows links between eating apples and the prevention of Alzheimer's.Hope this is a useful tidbit of information! Please let me know if you think this is a good idea, or any other food's you'd like to see various health benefits of. Happy Thursday!
