Three Apples a Day Make the Girth go Away
We’ve all heard the old adage: “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Have you ever wondered what three apples a day would do? Probably not, but you might be amazed! A study in 2009* suggests that you may be able to lose as much as 50 pounds in one year by simply ADDING an apple to each meal. Researcher’s found that people who ate an apple 15 minutes before each meal ate 150 fewer calories at that meal. Think about what that means: If you ate an apple before each meal that would be 450 fewer calories per day or 164,250 calories per year. For those wanting to lose weight 164,250 equals almost 47 pounds per year!
Some other interesting facts from this study:
Those that ate applesauce before the meal ate around 60 fewer calories.
Those that drank apple juice that contained fiber before the meal ate about the same or slightly less (about 10 calories).
Those that drank plain apple juice with no fiber either ate the same or slightly MORE (about 15 calories).
So to lose weight it seems to be best to eat the fruit in its natural state (as one of our physicians use to like to say: “The fruit, the whole fruit, and nothing but the fruit!). Who would of thought that such a simple strategy could make such a difference! So, maybe we need to change the old adage to “Three apples a day makes the girth go away.” All right, maybe not but it might be closer to the truth. It’s so simple why not give it a try and let us know how it goes.

Mardy's Note: 12/8/11: The distributor who provided this content on Lumigrate at my encouragement and with my support in the past has messaged through Lumigrate to request the content he provided be removed as he doesn't wish to participate in this 'effort' anymore. The forums at Lumigrate are a social media format, similar to facebook. That would be like contacting facebook and saying "take everything I ever commented on or posted off". Many conversations and exchanges of other providers are woven in 'threads' and that would be disrespectful to the other forum participants who gave their time and energy to participate in the 'social' media of Lumigrate's forums. However, I have changed the UserName to be Juice Plus 007, removed the photo, and am posting this in the signature and removing the contact information that is set up in the signature in order to make it clear this contributor no longer wants to be 'connected' with the posts. Additionally, as time permits, I will work to replace the content with similar but that will entail selecting another person distributing for Juice Plus. I wanted JP represented on Lumigrate because it is a well-known company based on the concept of supplementing fruits and vegetables. Also because JP reaches many people due to it's vast number of distributors; there are 10 in Grand Junction, population 50k or so. In addition to removing the information in the signature for contact, I have changed the username and email address associated with it to route to me if anyone were to send a "private message" to JP007. My first step will be to edit out any internal contact information/links to the requestor. I guess you call this an "imposter"? Grins! I hope this is a clear statement for the users of Lumigrate to view related YOUR forum area and how I manage it. After all, it is YOUR health education (and mine) I'm advocating for but Lumigrate, at the end of the day, is my website. I care a great deal about the users of Lumigrate feeling they are being treated well and providing a forum area which is a FUN place to come get valid, progressive information in a streamlined way when searching for health information our audience of consumers is seeking.
