Apple's dessert (sugar apple)

Since nineteenth Century, Welsh has a common saying about the relationship between apple and health: "an apple a day, a doctor away from me" (English: An apple a day keeps the doctor away) [3]. A preliminary study suggests that apple can reduce the risk of colon, prostate and lung cancer [4]. Apple skin contains ursolic acid, which can increase skeletal muscle and brown adipose tissue in rats, reduce white adipose tissue, and reduce the risk of obesity, glucose intolerance and fatty liver disease [5]. According to the US Department of agriculture, an apple with a weight of about 242 grams is 126 calories, containing a large amount of dietary fiber and vitamin C[6].

The apple skin contains a lot of phytochemical components, [7], which are uncertain of nutritional value, and may have antioxidant [8] in the experiment in vitro. Apple contains quercetin, catechin and proanthocyanidins, B2 and other phenols, [9].

The rat experiment showed that the concentration of apple juice could increase the secretion of acetylcholine ([10]) in the nerve conduction substance. Other experiments also found that rats in the use of apple juice "can slow down oxidative damage and cognitive decline" [11]. After feeding the apple hardener, the fruit flies have a life span of 10%[12] more than the fruit flies that feed the general food.
