Yet another reason to eat fruit! While bobbing for apples at your upcoming Halloween events, keep in mind that you should eat the apple after, why? Well, Apples have recently been added to the list of “Foods That Fight Cancer,” which is maintained by the American Institute of Cancer.  According to the study, flavonoids such as quercetin and the triterpenoids found in apples have slowed the development of cancers of the colon, lung and breast in several stages of cancer development.
