Hippocrates (c. 460-377 BC), the founder of medicine, also said that "Death dwells in the intestines."
This claim seems to be increasingly confirmed. Apples, which have been shown to have the highest pectin content among fruits, have a very good effect on digestion. This is due to the fact that apple pectin contains water-soluble but indigestible fibers .
The Healing Power of Apple Pectin
Today, modern science has rediscovered the extraordinary healing power of the apple.

Apples contain pectin, a type of fiber that acts as a prebiotic. This means it nourishes good gut bacteria .
The small intestine does not absorb fibers during digestion. Instead, it gets into the colon where it can promote the growth of good bacteria. In addition, it is converted into other useful compounds that are returned to your body (1). According to new research, this may be the reason some protective effects against apple obesity, type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
Apples contain a number of naturally occurring compounds that can help fight cancer.
They were incidence and cancer deaths associated with a lower risk of cancer surveillance studies.
Experimental studies have shown an association between plant compounds in apples and a lower risk of cancer (2).
In addition, a study in women reported that apple consumption may be associated with lower rates of cancer mortality (3).
Scientists believe that the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of apples may be responsible for their potential cancer-preventing effects (4).
