Seems there is some truth to that old saying “an apple a day keeps the doctor away.” If that doctor is a cardiologist it seems there just may be truth there. Apples have many components that indeed work to keep your heart healthy and may help lower bad cholesterol. Apples may even help lower high blood pressure and slim your waistline.
Key Takeaways:
- It may. Apples are a low-calorie, rich source of fiber, phytochemicals, and potassium, all of which can keep your heart healthy.
- Apples are a sweet source of soluble fiber, which has been shown to help you lower your “bad” LDL blood cholesterol.
- Apples also contain polyphenols, a hearty-healthy phytochemical, as well as potassium, a mineral that can help lower high blood pressure.
