A
An apple a day keeps the doctor away. Most of us have heard this old saying and followed it to keep healthy. But recently, a new study tells us whether there’s any truth in t his old saying.
A team of researchers led by Matthew Davis of the University of Michigan School of Nursing in the US, asked 8,399 people to answer questions of diet and health. A total of 753 were apple eaters. The other 7,646 were non-apple eaters. When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the chemist’s per year, the apple eaters were found to be 27 percent less likely to visit the chemist for drugs.
However, when considering other factors(因素) that can influence frequency(频率)of medical visits, such as weight, race, education and health insurance (健康保险), the difference disappeared. And the researchers found daily apple eaters were just as likely as non-apple eaters to go to doctors. In other words, an apple a day might keep the chemist away.
However, Davis said to USA Today, eating apples is still a healthy habit. Doctors generally agree that apples can be a good food choice. They are rich in vitamin C and also contain small amounts of vitamin A, calcium(钙) and iron.
But, “One apple isn’t going to be enough to make a difference unless it’s part of a healthy food pattern(模式)”, said Steven Zeisel, from the University of North Carolina’s Nutrition Research Institut e(营养研究学院), to NBC News. The old saying is thought to come from Wales in the 1800s. Apples, which have a long shelf-life（贮藏寿命）, were likely one of the few fruits that were available throughout the year, according to NBC News.
31. The old saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” may come from . A. doctors B. scientists
