Can an apple a day protect your
cells from damage?
Everyone I know is familiar with the old saying "an apple a day keeps the doctor away." Well, it's true. A new study found that apples can actually protect your blood cells against oxidative stress.

I've told you about oxidative stress in the past. It can cause serious damage to your cells. So much so that it can cause disruptions in normal cellular signaling. It can lead to a dramatic rise in inflammation and cancer.

This study looked only at six people. It's a very small sample. But the results tell all.
