The benefits and harms of apples for the body are not yet fully understood.

Apples have been praised for centuries. They are not useful for every person, but they can even bring serious harm to someone, especially when it comes to sour varieties.

The benefits of apples depending on the color

The color of the fruit depends on the presence of certain pigments. Not only color, but also benefit depends on them. The pigment not only gives a shade, but also indicates the concentration of other active components characteristic of each variety and color:

  1. Green apples are considered the healthiest. Nutritionists say that green fruits are absorbed by the body much easier than others. Yellow and red can cause an allergic reaction. Green apples also contain a fair amount of acid, which aids in digestion. It is also recommended to use green apples for diabetics, since after them blood sugar rises more slowly.
  2. Red apples are an element of many fairy tales, as they are known for their aesthetic beauty. In advertising, red varieties are most often flashed, but they are not as useful as green ones. They have less acid and more sugar, which increases the risk of tooth decay.
  3. Yellow apples differ in taste, contain more pectin and less iron compounds. Yellow varieties heal the liver and remove bile.

For health, choose green apples.

The benefits of apples

What are the benefits of sour apples? Fresh fruits (just picked from the tree) contain many useful elements that a person needs for normal daily functioning. The most essential of them are retinol (beta-carotene) and ascorbic acid. It is recommended to eat apples raw, since the vitamin C contained in them is destroyed by the slightest thermal effect. Apples can also boast of pectin, as well as a low glycemic index.

For those who lose weight, the most important fact is that apples contain a sufficient dose of flavonoids, which speed up the metabolism. It favorably affects those who suffer from gout, rheumatism, eczema and many other diseases of the skin and joints.

Apples can even quench your thirst, as they contain 87% water. Apples are a low-calorie product, containing only 47 calories per 100 grams.

The fruits of apple trees are also used to maintain beauty. From time immemorial, face masks have been prepared from apples, which refresh the skin, give it a healthy and ruddy appearance, and protect the outer layers of the dermis from external influences.

What vitamins are in sour apples?

Any apple is a storehouse of useful elements, including vitamins. The most useful of them are C, B1, B2, P, E, A. Often there is a question about which vitamin is more in an apple, but it is quite difficult to answer it, because it all depends on the variety. It is necessary to mention the most important minerals in the composition: iron, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, boron, iodine, chromium, zinc and many others. These trace elements have a beneficial effect not only on health, but also on the condition of the skin, nails and hair. You should not get rid of the peel, it is in it that pectins, fiber, and organic acids are useful for humans. Make a choice in favor of green apples, they have much more useful elements than red ones.

Sour

Sour varieties of apples are a real find for culinary lovers. They are used to prepare a huge number of delicious dishes: adjika, various sauces and salads, added to pies and so on. Indeed, it is thanks to acidity that such apples make the taste of the dish brighter and richer, enrich it. Chefs like to add especially sour fruits to various sauces, which perfectly interact in taste with meat. The most popular sour varieties are White filling, Antonovka, Pink Lady, Bessemyanka. Why are apples sour? These varieties have a high acid content.

But green (still unripe fruits) have high acidity. Housewives prefer to squeeze juice from such apples and roll it up for the winter. However, it is fresh fruits that have just been plucked from the tree that have the maximum number of useful properties.

Antonovka

Many gardeners fell in love with the fact that they are stored for a long time and may not deteriorate for three to four months. It is quite difficult to eat such fresh apples, as they are very sour. But the fruits are actively used in the preparation of apple jam and adjika.

Harm and contraindications

Nutritionists have always advised their patients to add apples to their diet, which is most likely why apple diets, which can harm the body, have become very popular today.
