Research shows that we eat apples completely wrong. The skin is not the most nutritious part of an apple, but the core.
Do you eat an apple with the skin on, because you think you get the most vitamins? Then you are completely wrong!

In addition to fibers and antioxidants that an apple contains, it also contains a lot of good bacteria that are good for the intestinal flora. Most of those bacteria are in the core, including the seeds.
According to the research published in Frontiers of Microbiology an apple contains no less than 100 million bacterial cells. But if you throw away the core, you only get 10 million of those cells in. That makes a big difference.
In short:no more throwing away the core, but eat the apple completely to get the most out of your health! Pips included!
