An Apple A Day Keeps The Doctor Away - October Is National Apple Month

Per the U.S. Apple Association, today's well known saying of "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" was derived from the old English saying, "Ate an apfel avore gwain to bed, make the doctor beg his bread". The original author of this very popular apple saying has been lost to history. However, the old expression remains true. Studies have shown that apple consumption  helps fight breast cancer, inhibits the onset of Alzheimers disease and reduces the risk of pancreatic cancer and other cancers and heart diseases.
