“An apple a day keeps the doctor away” is a saying that many know. A traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practitioner in Taiwan revealed the therapeutic secrets of apples, highlighting how eating and using them correctly can help combat eczema, heal leaky gut, and even aid in cancer prevention.
Apples offer extraordinary health benefits and may prevent various chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and dementia. According to Zhang Wei-jun, the fifth-generation heir of Huai Sheng Tang, a TCM clinic, apples are highly nourishing from a TCM perspective. Apples strengthen the spleen, stimulate appetite, moisten the lungs, relieve coughs, generate fluids, and quench thirst. Their refreshing aroma also uplifts the mood.
