Do you peel your Apple?

If you peel an apple before eating it, the flesh oxidizes more quickly. It is better to eat it with the skin on so you absorb more nutrients; just make sure to wash the apple thoroughly to remove any pesticide residue. Furthermore, eating the skin gives your teeth and jaw more of a workout during chewing compared to eating a peeled apple. Many people in the current generation suffer from impacted teeth because their jaws don't get enough exercise from chewing hard foods; from a young age, they have mostly eaten soft foods.
