Eat out in autumn must eat this 1 pill to detoxify and keep healthy

Have you eaten an apple today? As the saying goes, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." In addition to being rich in nutrients and dietary fiber, apples also have the functions of promoting salivation and quenching thirst, clearing away stool, lowering blood lipids, and lowering blood pressure. For women, apples are the best partner for beauty and weight loss. If you are one of those who prefer to eat out from convenience stores and microwaved foods, you need to rely on it to eliminate excess substances from your body.

For those who eat out in autumn, apples are the way to go in terms of sodium and potassium

In order to facilitate and speed, modern people often go to convenience stores to quickly buy microwaved food as a meal, but is this really good? According to the National Dietary Indicators Manual issued by the National Health and Family Planning Commission, daily sodium intake should be limited to less than 2,400 mg, which means that the intake per meal should be less than 800 mg. However, the sodium content of a bento box at a convenience store exceeds 1,000 mg. If you always eat out, it is easy to exceed the limit. Long-term unbalanced diet with high sodium and low potassium can easily cause edema and even increase the risk of cardiovascular and kidney diseases. Apples are potassium-containing fruits, which can help us eliminate excess sodium in our bodies.

Good breath, weight loss, and heart protection

If you think the benefits of apples are only about eliminating sodium, you are wrong! Apple is also a good alkaline fruit. Alkaline foods can promote the acidic balance of the mouth. Therefore, eating apples can increase the production of saliva, eliminate oral bacteria and remove food residues; its high fiber content will promote good bacteria in the intestines, which can help prevent metabolic problems related to obesity and chronic inflammation. A study by Florida State University in the United States found that apples help maintain lower cholesterol levels and are high in soluble fiber, which can reduce the risk of heart disease. In addition, apples contain healthy flavonoids, which can lower blood pressure and prevent stroke, and have many benefits.

Apples in season are usually not waxed.

It is no secret that apples need to be waxed. After harvesting, contact with air will produce a large amount of ethylene, which will cause the apples to age. Therefore, waxing is needed to isolate the skin from contact with air and avoid poor appearance after aging. Generally speaking, imported apples or apples that are not in season are first coated with a layer of edible wax in order to extend their shelf life. However, apples produced in the season are usually not coated with wax. The apple production season in Taiwan is approximately from September to December each year, so it is just the right time to eat them now! If you are still worried about ingesting the fruit wax by eating the skin and flesh together, it is recommended to wash it with salt, warm water, etc. before eating.
