There are variety of apples and some are more tasty than others. From the block "Errezil", which is the king of all in Euskal Herria, to the deserved apples that bring us from outside: Plow, Grammy Smith, apple reds, etc. Although the color and flavor of the apple's crust are very different in terms of its composition. In addition to water, carbohydrates are the main ingredients of the 200 g apple with 21 g of fructose. They do not contain fat or proteins.

It is considered a regulatory food due to the content of mineral salts and vitamins. An apple contains 200 mg of potassium and 9 mg of magnesium. The first is very interesting, since it is diuretic and the other is to take into account, because it is often difficult to meet our needs of this mineral. As for vitamins, it should be said that the apple contains many types of vitamins, although little of each. As an example, vitamin C: The apple has ten times less vitamin C than orange. However, this little vitamin C prevents oxidation. Therefore, once the vitamin C has been cut off, it disappears due to the effect of the air and the apple is blackened, that is, the skin acts as a protector of the vitamins found inside the apple.

The skin, in addition to protecting its inner content, is rich in fiber, the pectin soluble in water. The crushed apple oxidizes the pectin and helps to alleviate the problems of the diarrheants. Oxidized pectin retains water, decreases the elimination speed at the bottom and allows the intestines to absorb water. Consequently, the crushed apple is good for cases of diarrhea and in the case of constipation the results are different, since it varies a lot according to the type of fiber and the number of acids. We have already said that the crust is rich, but it must be taken into account that the pesticides used in the production of apple accumulate in the skin. Therefore, in case of not having ecological apples, it is recommended to remove them in case of all the others.

So far we've talked about the raw apple. However, there are many options: roasts, compotes, juices... all are ideal for people with stomach problems and easy to digest.

Since in our daily diet it is advisable to include three to four pieces of fruit, as a complement of citrus fruits, it is good to eat an apple a day.
