About Half of apple
Half of an apple is a nutritious and convenient snack, typically weighing around 75-100 grams depending on the variety. Apples are believed to have originated in Central Asia and are now a staple in cuisines worldwide, often enjoyed fresh or incorporated into desserts, salads, and savory dishes. Half an apple contains approximately 40-50 calories, making it a low-calorie food rich in essential nutrients. It's a good source of dietary fiber, particularly pectin, which supports digestion and heart health. Apples also provide vitamin C for immune support and small amounts of potassium, which contributes to maintaining healthy blood pressure. While they contain natural sugars, their glycemic index is low, meaning they provide a steady energy release. However, consuming apples with the peel intact ensures maximum fiber and antioxidant benefits. Overall, half an apple is an excellent choice for a light and healthful bite.
