According to Sydney food scientist Dr Vincent Candrawinata, there is good evidence to suggest eating apples regularly can improve memory and may lower the risk of Alzheimer's disease. The health researcher said eating more apples could 'help you remember where you put your car keys' as they contain vitamins and minerals that have been linked to memory preservation.
He said the fruit is rich in phenolics such as flavonoids which may help lower the risk of Alzheimer's by protecting the brain from harmful substances. Dr Vincent said flavonoids can also be found in many other fruits and vegetables and are also a strong antioxidant agent which can lessen symptoms of depression and anxiety.
