  • HEALTH BENEFITS of APPLES a Report by Juliette Kellow RD Commissioned by Pink Lady® UK
    THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF APPLES A report by Juliette Kellow RD commissioned by Pink Lady® UK PART 1 SETTING THE SCENE INTRODUCTION The state of the nation’s health and what we should – and shouldn’t – be eating to stay healthy and live longer is rarely out of the news. It’s unsurprising considering so many of the diseases that are commonly seen in the Western world are linked to a poor diet. What we eat is known to influence our risk of developing many major health problems, including obesity, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, many cancers and dementia. In fact, scientists have estimated that 11 million deaths around the world are related to a poor diet – that’s more than a fifth (22 percent) of all adult deaths1. So just what should we be eating to stay healthy? The message from health organisations around the world, including the World Health Organization, is consistent and really very simple: we should all be aiming to eat a more plant-based diet. That’s not to say we need to become vegetarian or vegan. Most health organisations agree there’s no need to give up meat, fish, eggs or dairy completely. However, plants should take centre stage on our plates and provide most of our nutrition2. This, of course, isn’t just better for our health. Numerous studies suggest it’s also better for the planet. This was summed up in a report published in The Lancet in early 20193. Compiled by 37 scientists from 16 countries around the world, the recommended diet – hailed as the ‘planet diet’– is projected to prevent around 11 million premature deaths each year by promoting a healthier, mainly plant-based, diet.
