Re: loss of Central Asia's forests (none / 1)

It is probably the apple peel that is the problem, it is one of those typical hard to digest stuff that causes stomach aches for many. So for you, I would suggest peeling the apple.

Oh, that's good to know!

Lots of nutrients are in the skin, but if you can not digest it properly, imho a peeled apple is better then no apple.

Also, if you buy the plastic-look-alike apples from the big supermarkets (you know what I'm talking about -the ones that can lie out in the open for a fortnight and still look fresh), you might want to remove the peel for other reasons as well...

I'll have to try them without the peel. We always peel apples for our grandson who loves them. They don't seem to bother him but his young system is fit for anything within reason.
