10 Benefits of Green Apples
Green Apple Benefit #2: Enhancing Heart Health
Apples are also known to help improve the health of the heart. There are several reasons for this. First, apples are known to help reduce cholesterol levels by providing the body with fibre. LDL cholesterol, or low-density lipoproteins, are dangerous because they can oxidize and cause problems in the arterial walls. Fibre is known to help the body get rid of excess LDL cholesterol.
Apples also contain polyphenols and other phytonutrients that act as antioxidants and can help fight oxidative stress in the blood vessels.
