Apple and wheat germ-superfoods!

In our busy life, we sometimes don’t think much about the most important thing in life: our own health. When we get sick, we make it stronger many times and don’t even take off long enough to go to the doctor. But the best thing is to take precautions to prevent evil illness and downtime.

Some of the superfoods that helped me leave the clinic were wheat germ and apples. Of course, everyone uses apples, but not many have heard of wheat germ. This is a sodium and cholesterol free food found in the cereal section of a local grocery store. An excellent source of vitamin E and folic acid.

Wheat germ can also be sprinkled on cereals, oatmeal, apples and other fruits. Mix it with the next meatloaf and the whole family will want more! The secret is to replace the bread crumbs with wheat germ. At the end of this article, I will also introduce the recipe. Wheat germ is excellent for helping complexion, nails and hair growth and helps prevent constipation.

Apples are rich in vitamins such as calcium, iron, phosphorus and potassium, and also provide important minerals. They cleanse your teeth, mouth, help supply pectin, and help good digestion. They have been shown to improve bone density, lower cholesterol and help weight loss.

Apples help prevent Alzheimer’s disease, lung cancer, liver cancer, colon cancer and manage diabetes. Apple juice has been proven to help children with asthma.

OK, this is a special quick and easy nutrition booster recipe to replace your favorite meatloaf breaded wheat germ.
