You may not find the minute details that informative. Now, due to the day to day work, we get stressed and we are getting older every day. Due to the stress and aging, cells get accumulated in the central nervous system of our body( the brain and the spinal cord) as a result of various chemical damage. These chemical damages occur by the chemicals produced naturally within our body in course of different anatomical processes. One of these sorts of damages is the oxidative damage. Oxidative damage can cause our brain to lose memory.

But, when we talk apples regularly, the different constituents of the apple form various sorts of anti-oxidants and these anti-oxidants help us maintain our memory in a good status by preventing the oxidative damages.

A research conducted by Dr. Thomas Shea and his team at the University of Massachusetts concluded that “….eating and drinking apple and apple juice, in conjunction with a balanced diet, can protect the brain from the effects of oxidative stress.”
