I love apricots. I was never wrong eating apricots whenever I like. This fruit is such a perfect package deal. That's when I knew it's role and importance to our health as I have observed the positive changes in me. Thus, to further agree on, I've searched through the Internet and here are some which I've collected:
A Flat Belly
More than half the fiber in each calorie apricot is the soluble kind. A recent Spanish study showed that women who increased their intake of soluble fiber lost 9 pounds in 16 weeks - without making any other changes to their diet. That's because this nutrient forms a slow-digesting gel in the gut that quells hunger for hours. Plus, apricots' insoluble fiber helps flatten bloat by efficient moving food through the GI tract.
Genius Brainpower
Apricot is a top natural source of zinc. The essential trace mineral plays a pivotal role in the synthesis of neurotransmitters such as dopamine to improve signaling in the hippo-campus, the brain's memory center. In a study, zinc was shown to improve on-the-spot recall of words and facts by 15%.
Silky-soft Skin
Apricots provide surefire defense against the premature aging of skin. German researchers recently discovered that, once consumed, the fruit's rich stores of lycopene migrate directly to the skin and remain for up to three days. There, the antioxidant neutralizes the skin-roughening singlet oxygen produced during exposure to the sun's ultraviolet radiation. The result: a baby-smooth complexion.
Boundless Energy
Regularly snacking on apricots can reduce tiredness by 28% in 30 days, report Chinese researchers. The fruit's malic acid which aids the body's production of adenosine triphosphate, an energy-dispensing molecule functions like a rechargeable battery. Plus, the blood, optimizing the delivery of invigorating oxygen throughout the body.
No wonder apricot can melt 9 pounds from my mushy middle. It further makes me younger looking and energetic all the time.
Now, I know!
