Organic Apple Powder Facts
Apples (Malus domestica) are nutrient-rich fruits that provide fiber (pectin), vitamin C, and a wide range of polyphenols. Both the flesh and peel contribute to their health effects. The fiber serves as a source of prebiotics, which healthy bacteria in the gut can use as a source of fuel to grow in higher numbers.
Key Benefits of Organic Apple Powder:
Apples provide fiber and antioxidant support:
- Supply soluble fiber (pectin) that supports gut health.
- Provide polyphenols that help defend cells from oxidative stress.
- Contribute vitamin C for antioxidant and immune support.
Why it Matters:
About 80% of Americans don’t eat enough fruits ¹.
Only 7% of Americans consume the recommended fiber ². Fiber intake in the U.S. averages ~15 g/day vs. recommended 25–38 g/day.
Apple polyphenols and pectin work synergistically to support gut and metabolic health.
