READING:

Oxford University says eating an apple every day can stop a heart attack. Researchers said if people over 50 years old ate an apple every day, fewer people would have heart attacks and strokes. There could be 11,000 fewer deaths in England if adults ate more fruit. Dr Adam Briggs said healthier eating is good for our health. He said small changes in diet and healthier living "can make a real difference in preventing heart disease and stroke".

People knew the phrase "an apple a day keeps the doctor away" over 100 years ago. They knew that apples were good for us. Scientists tell us the same thing today. Apples help lower cholesterol in our bodies. Cholesterol can give us a heart attack. There are over 7,500 kinds of apples. China grows nearly half of them. People eat apples raw. They also bake them, stew them, and make sauces and cakes with them.
