We've all heard the saying "an apple a day keeps the doctor away" but what does that actually mean? And what does it mean for a ballet dancer? Here is my top 10 list of reasons why all ballet dancers should eat more crunchy delicious apples!
10. The skin of apples is full of antioxidants which makes them a great immune boosting snack.
9. Apples are cheap and available year round
8. Apples are high in fiber and vitamins
7. Apples are low in calories
6. Apples are a natural mouth freshener and help whiten teeth for those stage smiles
5. Apples are a great source of vitamin B which helps give you more energy and boost your metabolism.
4. The calcium found in apples helps keep your bones strong
3. Apples move through your body quickly, making them a great snack before taking ballet class, they won't make you tired or slow moving like other high fiber foods.
2. Apples keep women's weight down, especially around your middle, so keep snacking!
1. Apples fit nicely in a dance bag! They are the perfect to-go snack!
