Why Apple is best food to eat on an empty stomach
Apples are very nutritious and are known as the “King of Fruits”. After getting up in the morning, eating an apple on an empty stomach is very good for health.
Apples are rich in carbohydrates. A medium-sized apple is about 3 inches and contains 20 grams of sugar. Apple’s sugar is mainly fructose and glucose.
A new WHO guideline recommends that adults and children should limit their daily sugar intake to around 25 grams.
After a night of sleep, the glycogen stored in the liver is basically exhausted. Eat an apple at this time, the sugar in the apple can be quickly absorbed, which can quickly replenish energy for the body.

Fresh apples are rich in water and dietary fiber. After water and dietary fiber enter the gastrointestinal tract, they can accelerate gastrointestinal motility, enhance metabolism, and eliminate toxins and garbage.
In addition, apples are rich in various vitamins and minerals. Eating an apple in the morning can supplement part of the vitamins and minerals that the body needs daily.
As the saying goes: “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.”
