The Natural Goodness of 100% Apple Juice
We’re all familiar with the saying, “An Apple a Day Keeps the Doctor Away.” Numerous research studies are providing strong scientific evidence that apples do indeed promote good health throughout our lifetime. Research has also shown that the nutrients in whole apples that provide many important health benefits are “passed along” when the fruit is processed into apple juice.*
The Good News Keeps Getting Even Better
Recent studies suggest that apple juice may provide health benefits that go well beyond the long-established vitamin- and mineral-associated benefits of natural fruits. Apple juice is also rich in “phytonutrients,” which are believed to have powerful antioxidant effects and which have been linked to lowered risk for many chronic and age-related ailments. These studies offer evidence that phytonutrients support and promote good health by:
- Reducing the risk of certain cancers
- Protecting against brain cell damage
- Reducing the risk of heart disease
- Reducing the risk of asthma
