    Apples

    Ok, I know we've talked about it, but I can't find it so I'll just ask...

    Are apples okay on a cut? I know strawberries, blueberries, etc are okay, but I can't recall about apples. I was thinking about gettnig some vanilla protein and throwing an apple into the blender and seeing what happens. Sounds like it could be yummy in my tummy, but I'm trying to lean up that tummy!

    apples are A number 1 OK - just about a perfect carb. Find one with a big fat worm in it and you got a full meal.

    I have heard the "green apple" argument before also. I suspect it has to do with minor differences in the sugar content of the apples - like difference between granny smith and golden delicious. I personally don't worry about it since its fairly low calories. I'd be more concerned about the size of the apple and I always get a medium one.

    "To be a cyclist is to be a student of pain....at cycling's core lies pain, hard and bitter as the pit inside a juicy peach. It doesn't matter if you're sprinting for an Olympic medal, a town sign, a trailhead, or the rest stop with the homemade brownies. If you never confront pain, you're missing the essence of the sport. Without pain, there's no adversity. Without adversity, no challenge. Without challenge, no improvement. No improvement, no sense of accomplishment and no deep-down joy.

    Jodi...I heard the same ingo...can't remember where...also heard that MacIntosh apples were the worst in comparison although I would assume the differences are minor. Personally I eat Granny Smith apples b/c they're my favorite variety...has nothing to do with GI or insulin response, etc. ???

    Who knows......I wish I could remember where I heard that though....come to think of it the source never said why to begin with???????????

    Eat the skin - I don't know the exact breakdown of the skin and I doubt that would be easy to find but the skin is the healthiest part. It contains alot of fiber and the pectin of the apple.

    It if oftentimes the case that veggies have the majority of their micronutrients in the very thin area's of the skins - same with some fruits.
