Apples and Lower LDL Cholesterol Levels | Arthritis Information

Older women who consume apples everyday were found to have an average of 23% reduced LDL cholesterol levels within six months and a 4% increase in HDL cholesterol, researchers from The Florida State University explained in the Experimental Biology 2011 meeting in Washington, D.C. The authors explain that apples really are a "miracle fruit.

DUH IMAGINE THAT A FRUIT THAT LOWERS YOUR CHOLESTEROL AND I THOUGHT COCA COLAS WERE THE ONLY THING THAT WORKED. DUH!!Ronbn

You are such a creep----let it go

Yeah, I'm doing something right. Thanks, Lynn.If you read the article it says 75 grams of dried apples. So it is not just an apple a day per say. I do not know exactly what 75 grams of dried apple is in measurements?

Anyone? Honestly I prefer my apples in origanal form. The dried ones tend to cause me some pain in the digestive system. Other dried fruit does not seem to bother me. Well I guess if the out come is worth it I could endure a bit of discomfort.

My sisters children four of them probably drink at least a large jug of apple juice a day on average some days more. Two of them will not drink anything else. That is you may not substitute orange juice or milk without an extreem protest. Maybe a yogurt drink once a day but apple juice is thier life line.

The fridge is always stuffed with grapes, blueberries and strawberries. If you buy apples or oranges they vanish into thin air immediately. Bananas tend to go rather quickly also.

Yes I do believe that about all fruits and veggies are miricle foods of one sort or another. Variety is usually a good bet as one is never sure which miracle food one may need more from one day to the next.

I certainly have a cholesterol problem of the heridatary nature so I consume large quanities of things that are supposed to be good for your cholesterol. I like the fact that it increases HDL also very important.

I have not had my cholesterol checked in years. I just know last it was checked it was horrible. Maybe six years ago? I guess once you know it is bad what is the point as it should be a live long problem to continue to get it under some control.

Yes I certainly like articles of this nature. I would have prefered it to have been a whole apple in origanal condition than dried apples. It is what it is. Surely they are both good for you.

[/QUOTE] LYNN IS GREAT FOR POINTING OUT THINGS THAT EVEN THE MOST IGNORANT PERSON SHOULD KNOW AND THAT IS FRUIT WILL LOWER CHOLESTEROL. HOW ABOVE YOU SHE THINKS SHE IS, AND HOW ARROGANT SHE IS TO THINK THOSE LOSERS THAT INFEST THIS BOARD OF LUNACY DO NOT EVEN KNOW APPLES ARE GOOD FOR LOWERING CHOLESTEROL. GOD FORBID ANY BODY BE THAT IGNORANT.

AND HERE I THOUGHT YOU WERE ALL GOING TO IGNORE ME LIKE THAT PIG DACHES MOM SAID. LOOKS LIKE I CAN RILE ANY ONE AT ANY TIME.

Glad you liked the article Lindy and Milly

I certainly found it interesting and worthwhile..I love apples! I make a kind of Waldorf Salad using apples, walnuts, celery and plain yogurt rather than mayo. Very tasty and sooooooooooooooo good! (I swat my hands to keep from eating the whole bowl! OMG...Waldorf Salad! LOVE it! I have apples everyday. Also strawberries, oranges, bananas, rasberries and blueberries. Good snacks in the evening, that is after I have my ice cream! LOL
Ahhhhh, Jello, I have to work so darn hard to pass the ice cream by! [QUOTE=Sid]nobody loves you

Everybody thinks you are a sad, lonely old creep.

THANKS FOR STOPPING IN AND THANKS FOR THE INSULTS. I LOVE A GOOD INSULT BUT YOU NEED TO WORK ON YOUR ABILITY YO INSULT BECAUSE YOUR INSULTS ARE POOR QUALITY INDICATING A LACK OF ABILITY TO EXPRESS YOUR TRUE CONTEMPT FOR ANOTHER HUMAN THAT YOU DESPISE. I GUESS THATS ALL ONE CAN EXPECT FROM ONE WTH LIMITED MENTAL ABILITIES AND IT REALLY WAS A GOOD EFFORT BUT YOIU NEED TO WORK ON IT AND SEE IF YOU CAN COME UP WITH SOME WORTHWHILE INSULTS. YOURS ARE A BIT JUVENILE.ronbn562011-04-17 11:56:42
