A is for apple

pple a day keeps the doctor away

We've all heard the wives tales, rumors, and sayings all our lives. But are the majority of them actually true? I've found that the majority of them are. Take our opening phrase for instance. The phrase that hales from Wales actually does your body a lot of good. Number one, they contain Vitamin C which strengthens the immune system and phenols, which reduces cholesterol. Also, the doctor isn't the only thing that keeps the doctor away Apples actually kill off bacteria in the mouth, which helps keep your mouth clean and healthy. So not only does an apple a day keep the doctor away but also the dentist, but it just doesn't have that nice of a ring to it does it? Cornell University researches have be investigating the phrase and they have suggested that the querctin found in apples protect brain cells against neuro-degenerative disorders like Alzheimer's Disease. In conclusion an apple a day keeps the doctor, dentist, and the shrink away. Apples anyone?

Some "rumors" that actually work:

• Putting baby powder into your hair really does soak up grease (but please keep taking showers people)
• Baking Soda whitens teeth (put it with a pinch of salt and have more perfect Kodak moment...I would have to say it is a bit hard on your teeth...so stick with White Strips)
