\"eating<\/a><\/p>\n

You have always known that an apple a day helps keep the doctor away but there is something else about consuming apples daily you probably didn’t know.<\/p>\n

Researchers at the University of East Anglia and Harvard Medical School found that consuming apples daily can also help you to stop putting on weight and also shed some weight.<\/p>\n

This is due to a plant compound called flavanoid which is also found in berries, pears, strawberries and radishes.<\/p>\n

The researchers analysed data for 124,086 men and women in the US over a 24-year period.<\/p>\n

“This is the first large study to examine the associations between consumption of all flavanoids and weight gain in middle-aged and older adults,” said Professor Aedin Cassidy, from the University of East Anglia’s Norwich Medical School.<\/p>\n

“Most adults gain weight as they age and even small increases in weight can have a substantial impact on risk of high blood pressure, developing heart disease, cancer or diabetes – so strategies to help individuals maintain a healthy weight in middle-age are needed.<\/p>\n

“We found that an increased consumption of most flavanoids was associated with weight maintenance and even a modest weight loss. The results were found to be consistent across men and women, and different ages.<\/p>\n

“However losing even small amounts of weight, or preventing weight gain, can improve health and these modest effects were seen with a small, readily achievable increase in intake of many of these fruits.<\/p>\n

“Just a single portion of some of these fruits per day would have an important impact on health at a population level.”<\/p>\n

The study was published in the British Medical Journal<\/i>.<\/p>\n
