Is the old saying “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” true or just an old wive’s tale? Kelly Springer says it’s true. Apples are loaded with nutrition plus they have fiber. Kelly says fiber helps your digestive tract and in your digestive tract it is responsible for 70% of your immunity so by feeding your body good fiber sources it actually helps boost your immunity plus they have vitamin C which can also boost your immunity.
