health hack of the month GOBBLE AND GO
ADMIRABLE APPLES • A Canadian fall staple, apples belong to the family Rosaceae, which includes ornamental roses as well as almonds, cherries, pears, raspberries and strawberries. This familiar fruit actually dates back to prehistory—apples were originally spread by ancient megafauna, and later as a part of trade along the Silk Road. Now, there are more than 7,500 varieties of apples grown for different tastes and uses, like cooking, eating raw and cider production. To reap the most health benefits of this seasonal superfood, leave the skin on the fruit to maximize the amounts of fibre and polyphenols.
Got (non-dairy) milk? • There are so many types of milk and non-dairy alternatives to choose from that it might be driving you nuts. If you can’t decide whether you should be pouring almond milk over your cereal or adding oat beverage to your coffee, you’re not alone. We asked two dietitians to help us uncover which milk substitute really is best for your health.
