Our Apple Pie Smoothie contains apples, apple juice, cinnamon, honey, and some banana. Lets talk about the benefits of apples and cinnamon in this post!
Apples: Where to begin! Apples have so many great health benefits. To begin, their water content is around 85%, which means that they helps alleviate immediate and cellular level thirst. Naturally anti toxic, apples help aid in digestion in several ways, one way is by reactivating the beneficial bacteria that live in our digestive systems. They work as diuretics and laxatives. "Studies indicate that eating apples daily will help reduce skin diseases, arthritis, and various lung and asthma problems; European research shows that apple pectin binds with radioactive residues and removes them from the body, along with lead, mercury, and other toxic heavy metals (Onstad, Diane)". Another great thing you will love about apples is that they are fat blockers! The pectin in apples help limit the amount of fat our adipose (fat cells) can absorb by forming a type of barrier!
Cinnamon: Cinnamon is an awesome spice that has proven to be a beneficial part of any diet. Cinnamon has been proven to aid in the lowering of LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) and also has shown to help type 2 diabetics by lowering blood sugar and helping increase natural insulin production. It also has anti fungal properties and candida (natural bacteria in our bodies that leads to oral thrush and yeast infections when overgrown) has been shown to not be able to live in a cinnamon environment. Cinnamon also is great for the blood! It has a natural anti clotting effect, and has been shown to help reduce the proliferation of leukemia and lymphoma cancer cells.
These are only A FEW health benefits for both apples and cinnamon, and boy do they make an excellent pair not just for your taste buds, but for your body too!
