Many experts believe that apples are the best fruit for improving digestion
(https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-193270384459bb447499ae9e14bef4ed-pjlq)
Apples are rich in dietary fiber. According to measurements, apples contain about 1.85% of dietary fiber, of which insoluble dietary fiber is 1.42% and soluble dietary fiber is 0.43%.
It is worth mentioning that the dietary fiber content of apple peel is much higher than that of fruit pulp, which is 2 to 3 times that of fruit pulp.
Dietary fiber is a polysaccharide, it can neither be digested and absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract, nor can it produce energy.
After the dietary fiber enters the gastrointestinal tract, it can accelerate gastrointestinal peristalsis, enhance metabolism, and reduce the residence time of food and feces.
In addition, dietary fiber swells with water, can absorb toxins, fat and cholesterol in the gastrointestinal tract, and promote their excretion, which is very beneficial to the digestive system.
