Apple Facts

Learn more about why we believe apples are the true superfruit.

Apples have been keeping families happy, healthy, and satisfied for centuries—and for good reason!

They’re full of fiber, naturally hydrating, and packed with healthy vitamins that help your brain, body, and mood feel their best.

Apple skins are packed with pectin—a natural fiber that aids digestion and helps you feel full, longer.
No powders, no prep, just 4.5g of the good stuff—from a single fruit!

We know apples to be sweet and juicy, but did you know they’re 85% water? Each bite hits like a fresh sip of water, keeping your glass half full throughout the day, no cup required.

Apples are rich in vitamins A & C, potassium, and polyphenols (plant-based cell protectors), all working to support your body’s natural defense systems at every age. Good for both growing up and staying strong.

Apples are loaded with quercetin, a natural antioxidant linked to brain health and lighter, brighter moods. Consider it serotonin by the slice!

Apples offer sweet, steady energy without the blood sugar spike. Since their natural sugars are paired with fiber, your body absorbs them more slowly—giving you a smoother, longer-lasting energy boost. No crash, just crunch.

Apples average around 100 calories per piece of fruit, with more flavor and crunch than your average granola bar. An easy win for those with a sweet tooth.

Apples have the potential to reduce both cholesterol and blood pressure, thanks to their magical combination of fiber and natural antioxidants. It’s pretty true what they say—an apple a day really can keep the doctor away.
