An Apple a Day Keeps the Doctor Away

Researchers suggest that apples reduce the risk of colon cancer, prostate cancer, and lung cancer, heart disease, weight loss, and controlling cholesterol, as they do not have cholesterol but fiber which reduces cholesterol by preventing reabsorption and are bulky for their caloric content.  Apples contain relatively low amounts of Vitamin C, but are a rich source of antioxidant compounds.  The fiber content helps regulate bowel movements and may thus reduce the risk of colon cancer.
