APPLES, APPLES, APPLES,,,So many apples on the 7lb program. Read on to discover the secret of apples.

Apples are naturally low in kilojoules and fat and contain many vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.

Apples are low in sodium thus will help prevent excess water weight commonly referred to as fluid retention. Apples are a great addition to the 7lb program due to flushing out any expanding fat cells that holds onto your fluids making you feel like a walking swimming pool at times. By releasing fluid that you may be carrying around in your body, come day 3 you will feel a spring in your step due to the fact that you are not longer carrying copious litres of fluid around.
Jason makes many references to people who don't take in enough water may think they are hungry and craving more food, when what they actually crave is hydration. High-water foods like apples keep you hydrated.

Apples have an abundance of soluble pectin.The pectin found in apples can prevent your body from absorbing too much fat as well as helping to release fat. Pectin is also a strong appetite suppressant that keeps you satisfied during the 7 days of the program. Pectin is also great for helping to stabilise blood sugar levels, so you get none of the sugar spikes that is often associated with highly sweetened/processed foods. Pectin is also great for keeping you "regular" during the program due to its fibre content.

Remember to always wash your apples before juicing them. Do be aware that some supermarket apples are often waxed, which seals in pesticide residues that may be on the skins, so try and buy from local green grocers where you can ask if they have waxed their apples. All the goodness of the apples are found in the peel so you shouldn't peel apples to remove the wax. If the only apples you can find have been waxed, soak the apples in a sink full of water with vinegar add and leave for an hour or so. When you return any pesticide residues should be removed. So just rinse and they are ready for use.
