Are Apples Really Good For You? You bet your Apple Brown Betty they are! Not only are apples good for you, but they are mighty tasty too and may bolster your weight loss efforts.
\nThe State University of Rio de Janeiro studied the effect of fruit intake on weight loss. They found that overweight women who ate three fruits a day, either apples or pears, lost more weight on a low-calorie plan than women who did not add fruit to their diet.
\nFruits like apples and pears are “low energy-density” foods. They are low in calories and high in fiber, leaving you feeling fuller longer. Apples are a natural appetite suppressant! Research also shows that eating a high-fiber diet decreases total calorie intake, which leads to weight loss.
\nApples also lower the risk of heart disease and strokes, fight cancer, make teeth whiter, prevent diverticulosis, keep the digestive tract running smoothly, lower cholesterol, and protect against asthma.
\nRighteous Recipe ~ <\/em><\/strong>
\nBAKED APPLE<\/strong> by Stevie Dinner. (Stevie Dinner, a graduate of the Culinary Institute and owner of a pastry shop for twelve years, managed to permanently remove 45 pounds. If Stevie can do it in the face of PASTRY, we can too.)<\/em>
\nJuicy and sweet, apples are only 80 calories, and they provide 5 grams of dietary fiber. They are a good source of iron, potassium and vitamins and are also rich in flavanoids and antioxidants.
\nPreheat oven to 375 degrees.
\nWash and core four (4) tart apples.
\nMix 1\/4 cup brown sugar with 1-1\/2 teaspoons of cinnamon
\nand rind from one (1) lemon.
\nPlace apples in an 8 x 8 pan.
\nDistribute sugar mixture evenly inside the cored apples.
\nPour 1\/2 cup boiling water into pan (not on top of the apples).
\nSqueeze lemon and add juice to pan.
\nBake apples for about 30 minutes or until soft,
\nnot mushy, basting every 10 minutes.
\nSpread the word … NOT the icing!
