Properties of Apples / Health
They are rich in pectin (a good ally against cholesterol and diabetes), amino acids, acids, sugars, and fibers. They are popularly attributed with anti-inflammatory properties for the digestive system; thanks to pectin, they are both a mild laxative and an astringent in cases of diarrhea or colitis, diuretic and detoxifying, and even anti-catarhal and hypotensive. Apple juice is frequently presented as a beauty product, capable of softening the skin. They help burn fat.
Preparation / Preservation
Keep them in plastic bags in the refrigerator after purchase to prevent further ripening. Apples can be stored like this for up to about six weeks. However, check them often and remove any apple that starts to go bad.
Wash them well and rinse with water. Prepare apple dishes just before serving to minimize browning (oxidation). Protect cut apples from oxidation by immersing them in a solution of one part citrus juice and three parts water.
