Impressive Benefits of Apple Juice

Apple juice is made over the pressing of apples, of which there are various varieties in the world. China is the largest producer of apples in the world. It takes two medium-sized apples to make one cup of apple juice, which is why these fruits are grown in such huge numbers. Apple juice retains many of the key nutrients of apples, including vitamin C and various B vitamins, as well as many different minerals, such as magnesium, iron, calcium, manganese, and copper. Some of the fiber is also retained in this juice, as are the phytochemicals, flavonols, and procyanidins. A single cup also represents about 10% of your daily required carbohydrates. After the apples are pressed, most juices are further filtered or pasteurized, which helps to remove any particulate matter, resulting in a thinner consistency of the final juice.

How to Prepare Apple Juice?
Apple juice is available all over the world, but some people do prefer to make their own apple juice. Without a true pasteurization machine, most people make something between apple cider and apple juice, but it is still delightful & relatively easy to prepare!
Ingredients:
8-10 apples
2 teaspoons of cinnamon
Step 1: Clean the apples thoroughly, but there is no need to remove the peel, as many of the nutrients can be extracted from the peel.
Step 2: Core and slice each apple into 12-15 chunks, increasing surface area to make the breakdown process easier.
Step 3: Fill a large pot with the apples and enough water to cover about half the apples.
Step 4: Slowly warm the water, and eventually bring it to a low simmer.
Step 5: Occasionally mash the apples to speed up the process.
Step 6: Gradually strain the apple mash through a strainer into a jar or other container. Press the mash to extract as much juice as possible. Do not discard the mash, as they can be used to make applesauce.
Step 7: For a very thin consistency, you can then filter the apple juice again through cheesecloth or coffee filters, although many people prefer a bit more pulp in their juice.
Step 8: Chill the juice, serve and enjoy!

Side Effects
Apple has amazing benefits and boasts a great nutrition profile, but too much of this juice can cause gastrointestinal problems, higher risk of kidney stone & diabetes.
Having said all of the above, 1-2 glasses of apple juice per day can deliver some great health benefits!
