- Weight Loss Apples are loaded with dietary fiber which helps aid digestion and promotes weight loss. A medium apple contains about five grams of fiber, more than most cereals. Also, apples contain almost zero fat and cholesterol.
 Cancer Prevention A 2001 Mayo Clinic study indicated that quercetin, a flavonoid abundant in apples, helps prevent the growth of prostate cancer cells. A Cornell University study indicated phytochemicals in the skin of an apple inhibited the reproduction of colon cancer cells by 43 percent.
Healthy Lungs A study in Britain indicated that people who ate at least five apples per week experience better lung function. Researchers reported that they also had a lower risk for respiratory disease.
Dental hygiene Apples have long been referred to as nature's toothbrush! While they don't actually clean the teeth, they promote dental hygiene. Biting and chewing an apple is a stimulant to the gums. The apple's sweetness promotes the flow of saliva which reduces tooth decay by decreasing the levels of bacteria in the mouth.
Whole Body Health A number of components in apples, most notably fiber and phytonutrients, have been found in studies to lower blood cholesterol and improve bowel function. They may also be associated with a reduced risk of ischemic heart disease, stroke, prostate cancer, type II diabetes and asthma.

Vermont Village cannery produces the finest organic applesauce using the whole apple including the peel. It's cooked the old-fashioned way in small kettles allowing the fruit to leisurely stew in its own juices.
A far cry from mass-produced store-bought brands that typically peel, dice and flash steam their apples, stripping them of practically all their nutritional benefits. They also add sugar as a sweetener and water to increase the yield.
Not so with Vermont Village Cannery applesauce! There's no water or sugar added, only a whisper of white grape juice to enhance the natural sweetness of the fruit. Try some today, plain or with added fruit and you'll never go back to store bought.
Tropical Applesauce Exotic tropical fruit is added to this premium applesauce.
