Dr. Wang Shengqiang
Eating apples offers numerous health benefits—not only does it promote intestinal motility, but it also helps protect the gastric and intestinal mucosa, facilitating the elimination of toxins and waste from the gut and thereby preventing constipation. Apples are rich in vitamins and amino acids, and can help lower cholesterol levels. However, avoid eating apples on an empty stomach or consuming excessive quantities at once, as this may cause indigestion or diarrhea.
