Apples

The winning long rope team of 5th graders (see post below) recently enjoyed a fresh apple from Open Harvest. Fresh apples contain powerful nutrients such as quercetin and vitamin C. Research has shown these nutrients improve immunity, metabolism, nerve protection, and sinus support. They are powerful antioxidants that protect the body's cells from damage. There are many delicious apple varieties available including fuji, gala, braeburn, cameo, red delicious, golden delicious, granny smith, honey crisp, etc. Each presents a unique flavor and texture. All are nutritious! Try to select apples that are ripe and undamaged (look and feel for bruises).
