One apple a day, keeps the doctor away? Yes!

Because it may:

• Support the immune system
• Support weight loss
• Protect the heart
• Help to prevent cancers
• Reduce inflammatory conditions
• Protect the brain
• May prevent Alzheimer’s disease... and no preparation needed! 😃

While an apple a day isn’t a magical cure-all that replaces modern medicine, it is a nutritional powerhouse!

👩🏻‍⚕️Tip: To get all of these benefits, eat the skin! A massive portion of the fiber and the brain-protecting antioxidants lives entirely in the apple peel. Just give it a good wash and enjoy.

This is what I just had for 165 kcals! Swapping out traditional cream cheese for low-fat cottage cheese gives you all the creamy texture with a fraction of the calories and a massive protein boost.

Tip: Pair it with smoked salmon (limit if you have high blood pressure/ swap with egg) on toasted wholegrain bread for the ultimate guilt-free fuel.

What’s your favorite healthy food swap?

Wishing you a happy Thursday!
