An Apple a Day Positively Boosts Body and Mood
Apples provide dietary fiber along with many polyphenol compounds that boost cancer-fighting defenses in the body. A diet rich in fiber helps lower the risk of some cancers while having antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. If that was not enough reason to reach for an apple, those same antioxidants fuel neurotransmitters in the brain that trigger the release of dopamine that boosts mood, making apples a truly “happy” fruit.
Pazazz apples are available year around with orchards in Washington state, the Midwest, New York, Nova Scotia and now Chile. A cross between the all-American favorite Honeycrisp and a mystery pollinator, this apple has that unmistakable wow-factor… both perfectly sweet and tangy with an explosive, loud crunch. It’s described as the jolly-rancher of apples.
