It is now listing a large number of local apple season, many people are FCL bags to move to the house. But really, when to eat, some guilty of worry: worry about the loss of Peel to eat for nutrition, eating with skin are also worried that Apple's hit wax, eating harmful to health. Experts give this answer: whether the identification of wax apples eat actually know-how.

　　Peel the flesh is more nutritious than the

Many varieties of apples, not only crispy & delicious Gala, Fuji, Guoguangpingguo, there are foam banana apples, both made of local apples, but also pass across the sea to Beijing imports Delicious. So many varieties of apples, in the end it is the most nutritious? China Agricultural University, Department of Nutrition and Food Safety, Dr. FAN Zhi-hong told reporters that Apple did a lot of variety, but on the nutrition was largely the same, it should be, or according to their personal tastes and preferences of selected apples.

Or whether we should eat apple with skin peeling eat, has long been debated. FAN Zhi-hong said that just from the nutritional point of view, is certainly choose to eat with skin, it is because compared to the flesh, the Ping Guopi is indeed rich in nutrition, a stronger anti-oxidation, but also prevention of hypertension and other chronic diseases .

　Peel the wax on the sub-three kinds of

Many people do not eat apple peeling, when the surface is often felt Apple would have a sense of oily and wax, thus worried that this layer of wax will not harm the body? FAN Zhi-hong said the peel wax on the three main conditions: the surface itself with a layer of apple fruit wax, which is a lipid component in Apple's protective layer formed on the surface of plants, it can effectively prevent the external micro-organisms, pesticides, etc. invasion of flesh, has protective effects; a number of high-grade wax apples with the above, is added to the food of artificial wax, this "artificial fruit wax" is actually a kind of chitosan material, more from the crab shells and other crustaceans extracted from this kind of material itself is not harmful to the body, whose role is mainly used for preservation, to prevent Apple's long-haul transport, long storage of the spoiled. To remove this layer of wax is also very simple to use, direct rinse with hot water can remove this layer of artificial apple surface eating wax.

In fact, people should worry about is the third wax - illegal hawkers in the use of industrial wax to the waxing of fruit, which contain mercury, lead might penetrate through the peel into the pulp, harm to the human body. Therefore, in the selection of wax fruit, the fruit can be hand or napkin wiping the surface if they can rub a layer under the faint red, please do not buy it, it is likely that industrial wax.

　Ripening other fruit can be

Priority selection of Apple to make bagging treatment (in fruit-growing process for using the bag wrapped up, and can effectively control pests and diseases of the infringement and pesticide contamination) of apples. This apple skin clean and uniform, contaminated gas, the impact of pesticide spraying is relatively small. Autumn is the season of ripe apples, fresh apples were sold without preservative treatment, eating peel safer. Moreover, the fresh apple fruit surface has a natural wax, and can see a layer of white frost, if it is particularly beautiful apple surface, especially in-season apples, it is best peeled before eating. Apple placed in the shade can keep 7-10 days of fresh, if the load bags into the fridge to save even more time, but how much will the loss of nutrients.

Apple has a role in fruit ripening, if the Kiwi immature plastic bag and put it into Apple, the Apple's release of ethylene are ripening the role of other fruits that can soften the kiwi or pear. However, if Apple and other mature fruits and vegetables together will accelerate its decay, so should be avoided.
