Here’s a fun nugget for you:
Did you know that eating an apple a day can support your liver and natural detoxification?
Apples are rich in antioxidants like quercetin, catechin, and chlorogenic acid, which help reduce oxidative stress in the liver—a key part of the detox process.
They’re also a great source of pectin, a soluble fiber that binds to toxins in the digestive tract and helps eliminate them, easing the liver’s workload.
Plus, apples contain malic acid, which may support bile production (important for digestion and toxin removal), and polyphenols that help reduce inflammation. And with their low glycemic index, they’re a smart choice all around.
So maybe there’s some truth to the old saying: “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.”🍎 😊
