Apple A Day…

You know the saying. “An apple a day keeps the doctor away”.

Apples

And as Jim Rohn used to put it so eloquently.

“What if they’re right?”

Did you start one of the clean eating habits? I hope so.

Thinking about it is important because a little planning is needed. But this stuff requires you to take action. And not just once. You’ve gotta make it a habit! A conscious choice. Every day.

In this post, we’ll continue to reinforce our eating clean habit by adding another very simple step.

You guessed it! We’re going to start eating an apple a day.

The first thing you will need to do is go to your local farmer’s market or grocery store and buy 7 apples for the week. Pick the kind you like, or get a variety. And then start eating.

One apple, every day.

I have found that this one, simple habit goes a long way to keeping my stomach and digestion in great shape. And apples are good for you, so what’s not to like?

But what if you don’t like apples? You could:

  1. Try different types. There are over 20 varieties to choose from.
  2. Try something else like pears, quinces, or plums.
  3. Give apples another try. Our tastes change over time.
  4. No, sorry but candy apples are not on the list.

I get an extra bang for my health by slicing the apple and sprinkling cinnamon on it. Then grab a heaping tablespoon of peanut butter for protein and healthy fat. And look, you’ve just prepared a delicious snack. If you’re on the go, throw it in a zip lock bag for later.

If you use a sharp, non-serrated knife, the apple won’t turn brown.

I’m not going to tell you that you should buy organic. That’s a personal decision. I prefer non-organic red delicious, and just scrub the hell out of them with soap and water since you’re eating the skin where any pesticide residue may exist.

Apples

Here are a few interesting things I found out about apples.

  1. Apples are part of the rose family (Rosaceae). Who would’ve thought? Learn more at the Wikipedia.
  2. There were more references to Apple the technology company than the fruit.
  3. Apples provide a wealth of benefits to keep the doctor away. Check out this site.

And if you don’t have time to go to the store, HoneyCrisp.com makes house calls. Choose from a wide variety and get ‘em shipped right to your door. Just what the doctor ordered!

Thank you for sharing your time with me. I hope you found value.

Now it’s time for YOU to take action…
