      First point

      Apples are warm in nature, so it doesn’t matter if you eat them on an empty stomach. They are also good for the stomach – nourishing the stomach!

      This is the advice a doctor gave me. And it can also prevent constipate

      Also, you can’t say apples are sour, they are acidic fruits! !

      Fruits contain a lot of sugar, and people are generally hungry in the morning. Eating apples can supplement sugar, so eating apples in the morning has high nutritional value. Eating apples on an empty stomach can help digestion.

      Apples are rich in sugars, acids, aromatic alcohols and pectin substances, and contain vitamins B, C, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, iron and other nutrients.

They also have the functions of "moistening the lungs, pleasing the heart, producing body fluids, appetizing, and sobering up". Apple tastes sweet and sour, and is cool in nature.

Folks still use apples to treat chronic diseases diarrheanerve colitis and intestinal tuberculosis, etc. disease method. The Germans also use "Moros apple therapy" to treat enteritis. In addition, eating an apple on an empty stomach every morning and evening can treat dry stool. Eating apples after meals has a certain effect on nausea and indigestion; patients with high blood pressure insist on eating apples 3 times a day, 1-2 each time, to achieve a blood pressure-lowering effect.

      But know that apples contain galactose acid, which is very effective in detoxification. Its pectin can prevent food from decaying in the intestines. Eating a few apples or drinking a few glasses of apple juice every day can prevent gallstones.
