Apples are a great juicer-friendly fruit that packs a powerfully nutritious punch.

As the aged-old saying goes, “an apple a day keeps the doctor away.”

Apples are believed to have the following potential:
• Antioxidant power
• Cardiovascular benefits
• Blood sugar regulation
• Anti-cancer benefits
• Anti-asthma benefits

So if you’ve got the apples, we’ve got some recipes! My favorite is the apple carrot soup below.
